SPOILERS AHEAD

I discovered this game thanks to "JarekTheGamingDragon" review of the XIII remake, and what he said about the original convinced me enough to get the game. A cult FPS, released in the early 2000? Sign me in!

Let me start with this game's biggest positive, this game is not inspired by comics, this game IS a comic, in the way it's presented, there's just so much style, clearly a lot of the development went into making this as stylized as possible, and it delivers.

The game has dinamic music, which is very nice, the soundtrack in general was really good.

The story was fine, nothing groundbreaking, uncovering the mistery of the protagonist's identity was entertaining, I only wish the agents' cult thingy was a bit more developed, I mean, we don't even get to meet the majority of them, the side characters were ok Major Jones is a real og, Carrington is fine, and Kim, well, she barely was a character, I wish that we got more out of her, the ending tho, it sucked, stories ending with cliffhangers can always backfire, and since we didn't get a sequel for this game, yeah.

The levels are fine, and at times, interesting, even for such a linear game, the gadgets were cool, the two of them, that is, you get both a grapling hook and a lockpick, but you will only really use the grapling hook for most of the game, the lockpick is pretty much useless aside from the parts where the game WANTS you to use it.

The stealth was actually the part of the game that I enjoyed the most, it's nothing complex, and the enemies are "blind" and "deaf", as you would expect, and the mechanic of carring bodies is useless for the majority of the game aside from those one missions where the game WANTS you to use it.

However... the game clearly did not age well in a lot of places, especially in the gunplay, the weapons are horribly innacurate, especially the assault rifiles, which make fighting enemies from afar an almost impossible task, and at times this made the game feel incredibly frustrating, and one mission in particular annoyed me enough that I lowered the game's difficulty, besides the weapons being innacurate, the enemies were so bullet spongy, which is why the sniper rifle and crossbow were my favourite weapons in the game, since I could just heatshot the enemies, which, for both weapons, is a 1 hit kill.

The selection of weapons is serviceable, the throwing knifes are ok, but they are outperformed by the crossbow. The pistols are ♥♥♥♥♥♥, I only used 'em for stealth sections, and even then, they were outperformed by the crossbow. The revolver was fun, even if it didn't appear enough in my opinion. At the start I didn't like the shotgun all that much, but as time went on, I started to enjoy it more. The crossbow was my second favourite weapon on this game, hitting headshots with this was so satisfying and it was also the best weapon for stealth sections, period. The assault rifles were awful (I'm including both the Kalash as well as the M16 here), the M16 was a bit better since it came with a grenade launcher attachement, but both of them were incredible innacurate, I'll go deeper later. The sniper rifle was my favourite weapon on this game, it was so fun to use, but it barely appeared. The grenades were ok, i mean, they are grenades, you don't need to know much more, the M60 was lackluster, you expect this weapon to be devastating and incredibly powerfull, but thanks to the enemies being so bullet spongy, just made the weapon not fun to use. The Harpoon Gun is only useful for ONE section of the game, on which you're underwater and can't use anything else, aside from that, it's completely useless. The Bazooka was fun, even if it barely appeared in the game.

So, in short, this is cool game, there was clearly a lot of love and care put into it, but due to the gunplay being SO ♥♥♥♥, I cannot recommend it, but if that doesn't bother you, then yeah, go for it.

This game is a banger, it's probably one of the best fighting games for casuals, the offline content is decent, the roster is gigantic, the mechanics cater to both casuals and pros, although personally I don't like the mechanics, but still, this is a great game, and it's what put fighting games back on the spot for a lot of people, and it's what allowed fighting games to achieve such reach as they currently have. However, this game has one gigantic caveat, no rollback netcode.

If the lack of rollback does not bother you, then I recommend you check this game out.

This game had potential, since it's free, it gets a bonus from me, however, the game is extremely simplistic and short, for such an interesting time period and location, it barely gets explored, same goes for the characters, which you can barely call them characters, and the choices are the most basic thing in the world, the visuals are also pretty basic, but that's fine by me.

The biggest praise I can give to this game, besides it being free, is that it could interest someone enough for them to search and learn about this era of Poland's history.

At the end of the day, it's a game you'll get becaus it's free, try once or twice, and then never again.

An absolute amazing game, however, there was a mod that made Coach say the N word, ever since that mod was removed I stopped playing the game, and haven't returned since. 0/10

Very fun, inspired by classic arcade games, it's a simple, and quite entertaining, nothing mindblowing or lifechanging, but it really doesn't have to be, I recommend this if you want a simple, short game, with personality and charm.

I absolutely love TF2, it's one of my favourite games of all time, and my favourite multiplayer, however, due to Valve's neglicency, it's been ruined by bots, and it's malicious hosters, the TF2 community is one of the oldest and greatest there is, the game's influence is gigantic, Valve NEEDS to step up, otherwise all of this will soon be lost.
