Review: Contrast (Xbox One)

contrast
As Canada's top video game collector, I have a lot of games. I have more than 15,000 of them to be (mostly) exact. So one thing I am never at a loss for is what game to play next because I have an endless supply of them. So, when I turned around to play the Xbox One version of Contrast right after finishing the PlayStation 4 version you have to appreciate how significant that is for me.

Contrast is a Canadian-developed indie game that stars Dawn, the imaginary friend of Didi. Didi lives with her mother in the 1920's. A precocious little child, Didi guides you along in a world of shadows. Where Dawn seems to exist in the "real" world and can shift in and out of the shadows, the majority of the game's characters exist only in the shadow world. The story is about Didi and her family and it's hard not to tell you more about that without giving away too much.
