040 — As Dusk Falls

Welcome to Xbox Game Passengers. After a bit of a much-needed break from the show, we're excited to be back with a brand-new episode. Derek and Dougie jumped into As Dusk Falls hoping to relive the Telltale Games there-are-no-good-choices glory days (well, at least Derek was) with As Dusk Falls. How did things turn out? Listen on to find out! Now, we hope to be back very soon with regular episodes, but we don't quite know what that looks like yet. You'll hear it in the show itself, but Derek has been having a hard time enjoying games at all as of late (hence the long break), and being forced to play some potentially bad games doesn't seem like the best way to overcome that. There are plenty of things that he's missed (and plenty of those things on Xbox Game Pass), so he's going to focus on playing some titles that are hopefully enjoyable, and craft some episodes from there! As Dusk Falls is an original interactive drama from INTERIOR/NIGHT that explores the entangled lives of two families across thirty years. Starting in 1998 with a robbery-gone-wrong in small town Arizona, the choices you make have a powerful impact on the characters’ lives in this uncompromising story of betrayal, sacrifice and resilience.  Replay the story again and again to uncover vastly different outcomes for the characters and explore hidden nuances behind every decision. Will your characters survive unscathed? What kind of people will they ultimately become?
