Explosive Candy World Review (Xbox Series S)

Forget running or jumping. In our Explosive Candy World Review, we will have to destroy obstacles, blow ourselves over pitfalls, and ricochet off walls in order to reach the goal!

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
