Professional assassin turned amateur campaign manager Steve is charged with cleaning up the city by an anthropomorphic rabbit and mayoral candidate from the future named BunnyLord. Now Steve and his expanding roster of dubious heroes must wield their unique skills to shoot, slide, dive and take cover behind a political platform built on ethics, accountability, and an inordinate amount of gunfire. Eliminate the criminal underworld of the city’s three major districts and persuade undecided voters to your cause, tackling the issues that matter by putting a gun in the mouth of those issues. Through the power of ISO-Slant technology and a wasted youth, London-based developer Roll7 (OlliOlli) delivers the greatest 2¼D cover-based indie shooter of all-time, ever.

Gameplay captures a cinematic feel to shoot-outs as you dive from enemies, dip in and out behind walls, and violently scatter the enemy pixels across the walls in a handful of levels which take the form of sky scrapers and tower blocks.
The comedy draws on British culture featuring the full spectrum of English accents paired with comedic stereotypes of British folk from the 2010's. Each mission feels like you're re-enacting a Guy Ritchie film as you tumble around tower blocks and take out roadmen decked out in chains, hoodies, and puffer jackets.
While it's always nice to see proper British representation the gameplay gets repetitive fast. Each characters gimmick is their unique weapon and voice acting but it does little to keep the interactions fresh as you'll be dipping in and out of cover from start to finish. Funny at times but not much else to it.
