Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
89 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Developed and published by Andrei Ivashentsev, this independent first-person shooter channels the spirit of the genre's formative years, delivering an experience built around speed, reflexes, and unrelenting combat.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
67 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The maps are also well designed, with key finding mechanics and secrets.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
52 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack isn’t legendary as it offers a very generic rock song / loop but still it matches the style and purpose of the game so much, audio is above average as well as you can instantly hear where enemies spawn and from where they shoot.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
In all honesty it does look like an early 2000’s game which was the main reason why I wanted to try it out, it offers very vibrant colours with low detail enemies and overused textures which just screams nostalgia.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I played on a weak computer and the fps was 90, which is pretty cool for it.
