Never heard of this game, probably got it in some bundle and I just tried it before removing from my "try that" list...

...and then I finished it in two 3hrs sessions.

It's a pretty linear top down shooter, that grabs you from the first moment. Even though a story is a bit lame and trippy, the game itself can be really scary sometimes, especially when zombies and other enemies are really fast and can kill you in a matter of seconds. However, it's not really challenging. Also, I liked the autosave system: it was somehow on the right places. Almost never frustrating, yet many times I really wanted not to die, because I knew what I would need to repeat. Rarely the developer gets this right (at least for me).

I like pixelart, but here it "only" serves its purpose, don't expect beautiful sceneries. There are only few guns in the game, about 10 including some grenades and an axe, but still satisfying and different enough to recognize whether you have a shotgun or a mp5.

Finished it in a little more than 5hrs with 66% achievements and while I was stuck for a moment in some places, it was mainly because of some boss fight, almost never because I didn't know what to do (maybe once, Prison level).

Last, but not least, this game simply works.
It's a bit sad I have to say it like it is a positive and not a standard, but we see the state of a game industry these days, right? This game works. From start to end. You will not have a problem. Ok sound, good controls, no bugs, you can skip every dialogue if you want to, resolution doesn't mess with the icons on your desktop when you quit... It's just a smooth experience.

If you like games like Hotline Miami, Teleglitch or the one I really liked and always forgot it's name, give it a try.
