I really enjoyed my time playing The Gunk. It was relaxing, chill and fun. The world is vibrant and the puzzles are so simple you can just turn your mind off and enjoy the environments whilst you perform simple platforming and clean up the world of gunk. The story is intresting and I would love to see more unique games like this on the Xbox. I had fun with this game throughout and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a chill time in and intresting beautiful world.

THE GUNK

A story-driven, post-apocalyptic game where you will venture into a certain alien planet. The mechanics of this game is simple, use your vacuum cleaner-like tech to clean some gunks. That's it! The good part of this game is the graphics and the story shows some potential. Although it's a bit short though. It's good to think that this game didn't have any bugs at launch. Considering it was developed by an indie company.

Vacuum cleaner LOL

This is the 2nd surprise indy game that I’ve actually liked this year- the other being Kena Bridge of Spirits. The Gunk’s graphics remind me a little of Kena, but not quite as good. This is one of the most chill games I’ve ever played. The gameplay is interesting. It’s pretty mellow up until the end with some boss fights. It took me about 9.5 hours to complete- so not as short as some have said. With this being on Game Pass- you really can’t go wrong. I highly recommend it & I’d play it again sometime in the future.
