The Council for Xbox One is a new and fresh take on story adventure games that completely alters the way that gameplay is experienced.
Story adventure games have become a common sight in the gaming industry in recent years, each one usually containing a creative and enjoyable story surrounded by great music and graphics, solid world-building, quick time events, and the occasional puzzle. However, they all tend to play out quite the same way and going into the first episode of The Council, I was worried that I would start to feel burned out.
This was not the case, though, and I was pleasantly surprised by how the game blends elements from regular story adventure titles with a classic role-playing game (RPG) progression system. Though the performance is a bit buggy, The Council's pilot episode is nevertheless a fresh take on the genre.
