The fantastic first-person puzzler from Dan Smith Studios is now available on Xbox One and PC, after launching on PS4 earlier in the week. Nintendo Switch owners have a little bit longer to wait but it should be with you before the end of summer.

Our protagonist, Alex, wakes up in the fancy (but strangely empty) Penrose Hotel, without any memory of the events that lead him there. He's understandably curious and sets about exploring, solving colour coded puzzles and looking for clues as to why he's here and how he can escape.

Take a look at our recent interview with the game's BAFTA-winning creator, Dan Smith, to learn more about his creative process and how The Spectrum Retreat came to life.

You can find out why it's already a strong contender for James' personal Game of the Year in our review.
