Note: Sorry about the audio issues in this episode! I totally didn’t confirm the microphone that I was recording with, and it ended up being my notebook’s built in microphone. Thanks for sticking with us anyways and we'll make sure it doesn't happen again!

Welcome to Xbox Game Passengers.

Once a month, host Derek and a guest will dissect and discuss just one game available on Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service, which was chosen for them (usually) at random.

Whether the game is a magical or a horrible experience, they’ll force themselves through it, share their thoughts, and let you know whether or not the game is worth your time! At the end of each episode, they’ll also randomly select the game for the following show, so you always know what’s coming up on the next adventure.

This month, Mikaela’s back for a fine chat all about the first chapter in Supermassive Games’ spooky anthology series The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan. Derek and Mikaela played this one together… so head below to listen in to see who made the worst decisions, and who killed more characters!

The Dark Pictures Anthology is a series of stand-alone, branching cinematic horror games featuring a multiplayer mode.

In Man of Medan, five friends set sail on a holiday diving trip that soon changes into something much more sinister.

Embark on a horrific journey aboard a ghost ship. Experience your terrifying story with a friend online or go for safety in numbers with up to five players offline. All playable characters can live or die. The choices you make will decide their fate.

Who will you save? Don’t. Play. Alone.
