A couple of easy games this week with a majority of the Gamerscore coming from DERIK DF. A new game triple stack along with 2 new windows releases can nab you a quick 5,000 Gamerscore.
Billy’s Game Show (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5)
Estimated Completion Time: 10 minutes – 2+ Hours
Publisher: Sometimes You
Developers: CH757, Key
Release Date: September 4, 2024
Xbox Store Links: Xbox One, Xbox X|S
Playstation Store Links: PS4, PS5
A stack on both Xbox and PlayStation for this game. Separate purchases for all version.
Billy’s Game Show really reminds me of Poppy Playtime which is also in the stealth horror genre and another easy completion.
In Billy’s Game Show you wake up in bed to find yourself playing against an AI that is watching your every move through security cameras. The final goal of this game is find 3 hidden heads to slot into a door to make your escape.
Billy’s Game Show can possibly be completed in as little as 10 minutes with a video guide. The unfortunate issue with this game is that the controls are … pretty downright terrible. You start the game with 7 lives and can take 3 hits. You will encounter puzzles and traps and around halfway through the game Billy will find you. Billy isn’t particularly scary it’s just very frustrating managing the controls to deal with Billy that is the real issue. This will likely lead you to have to play through the game more than once. I wasn’t scared, but more so pissed off by the time I played through the game my first time.
Needless to say, if you’re looking for Gamerscore or Trophies you can earn some of those quite quickly and easily. I did earn 770 Gamerscore in my first run before I rage quit.
Aero the Acro-Bat 2 (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5)
Estimated Completion Time: 1-2 Hours
Publisher: Ratalaika Games
Developers: Shinyuden, Sunsoft
Release Date: September 6, 2024
Xbox Store Links: Xbox
Playstation Store Links: PS4/PS5
Just one achievement list available on Xbox. A Platinum Trophy stack available on PlayStation on PS4 and PS5 along with cross-buy.
Aero the Acro-Bat 2 is the newest re-release from Ratalaika. This platformer was originally developed by Iguana Entertainment and published by Sunsoft in 1994 for the Sega Genesis and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
This sequel game feature 8 areas with 3 stages each. You play as Aero, a bat who is yet again tasked with saving the world from Edgar Ektor. This game includes Ratalaika’s special cheats functions which can be accessed from the start menu. This menu makes the game a breeze with infinite energy, infinite lives and invulnerability.
Achievement wise this game is much simpler than the recently released Aero the Acrobat original. In this version the game simply requires you to play through each level. Feel free to abuse the cheats. Defeat Ektor’s plans and earn yourself 1,000 Gamerscore or a Platinum Trophy.
3XTINCTION (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S)
Estimated Completion Time: 2-3 Hours
Publisher: 2BAD GAMES
Developers: 2BAD GAMES
Release Date: September 4, 2024
Xbox Store Links: Xbox
Another Xbox only game this week and a single achievement list available on Xbox.
3xtinction is an Online Co-op Top Down Shooter with tactical and strategic elements. 2BAD GAMES like to release games that always include Title Updates with more Gamerscore.
This game will have you taking on hordes of infected and zombies. For the full 1,000 Gamerscore you’ll need to complete 10 missions, level up, unlock skills and upgrade weapons. This game is one of the longer completions this week but still very straightforward.
Elon and the Divine Proof (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Windows)
Estimated Completion Time: 2 minutes
Publisher: DERIK DF
Developers: DERIK DF
Release Date: September 4, 2024
Xbox Store Links: Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S
Windows Store Link: Windows
Xbox Store Bundle Link: Xbox/Windows Bundle
Triple Stack available on Xbox between the Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Windows versions. A bundle is also available to purchase that includes all 3 versions. As with other DERIK DF games this one is not available on PlayStation unfortunately.
This is another very, very fast DERIK DF game. All 3 games can be finished in a whopping 6 minutes, just a mere 2 minutes a piece. This is a game made for achievement hunters. So much so that the developer added a secret area to gain all the achievements without really playing the “game”. All achievements revolve around picking up hamburgers and by accessing the secret area you will earn more than enough hamburgers in minutes.
Green Soldiers Heroes (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Windows)
Estimated Completion Time: 10 minutes
Publisher: DERIK DF
Developers: DERIK DF
Release Date: September 4, 2024
Xbox Store Bundle: Xbox/Windows
Windows Store Link: Windows
A new achievement list is available for Green Soldiers Heroes and now a stack is available on Windows this time. There is a bundle available between the Xbox and Windows versions, however if your an achievement aficionado you likely already own the Xbox version.
For the initial 1,000 Gamerscore, this game tasks you with playing through the initial 7 Missions. The game is very easy and very quick. Expect to see more Gamerscore added to this game as the original release is currently at 3,000 Gamerscore.
Super Snake Block DX (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Windows)
Estimated Completion Time: 15-30 minutes
Publisher: DERIK DF
Developers: DERIK DF
Release Date: September 4, 2024
Xbox Store Bundle: Xbox/Windows
Windows Store Link: Windows
As with DERIK DF’s Green Soldiers Heroes a new achievement list is also available for Super Snake Block DX and a stack is available on Windows. There is a bundle available between the Xbox and Windows versions. However, if you’re an achievement addict like me you already own the original release.
This game is also very simple and very fast completion. First grind coins to buy better snakes and then merely play through a level until your snake gets to a length of 50, gain 100 coins in a single run and break 25 crates to earn 100 score in a run.
This is a very simple completion and will more than likely receive more Gamerscore added in Title Updates. The original release on Xbox is already at 3,000 Gamerscore.
