I think even most mobile games are more interactive than the Peppa Pig game. The Paw Patrol and PJ Masks games are good introductions to platforming, as they are easy to control and you can’t fail a level. My boy started with than on Steam and moved on to the Lego games. He also plays Kirby Star Allies, Mario Kart 8 and a bit of Minecraft on Switch. On Steam he also loves Marvel vs Capcom Infinite (on easy mode).

Nice!
Turbo Golf Racing looks like it could be some silly fun.
Another Ubisoft game added, I’m keen to give Wildlands a go for some co-op action. There’s rumour that Immortals Fenyx Rising may be added to the service some time. Which would be a nice wish fulfilment:

GR:Wildlands is possibly my favourite of the franchise. I know @MalicE was big on it too, perhaps a MEW event would be in order now. Sadly, I don’t think it has cross-play.

It should be their slogan:
“Game Pass. For the games you want to play but not enough to actually buy in a Steam sale. You’re welcome.”

Urgh would love to play Wild lands but I have the same issue of having a different Ubisoft account linked to my Xbox account, and for the life of me I cannot get it removed.
