Basically a pixel art HITMAN game, where you play death itself. Some of the deaths ares hilarious and over the top.

Very funny "accidents" if you want to just progress through the game. It gets a little frustrating if you want to get the highest score in each level since it seems to be only one specific order of "events" in order to get the gighest rank.

Ai of this game was so hyped that I had to try it (and the game cost me like $0.30) and THEY WERE RIGHT! Probably the best enemies I have faced in a FPS.

Pros: incredible AI and good psychological terror. ( I got chills every time)
Cons: very old game, be ready to download risky .dll's to get it to even lauch. Sometimes the game breaks and you will have to reload your last checkpoint in order to continue. Enemies, while "smart", are like damage sponges once they notice you. Your weapon's accuracy is non-existent. There are a couple of cheap jump scares at the beginning. Subtitles are too small in a 1080 monitor (remember this is from 2005...) and the voice audio is very low so you might miss important parts of the story.

Tip: use something like ReShade to give this game new life in the graphics department.

Amazing, very dark themed, simple (in the good way), nice puzzles. The animation details are great. the way the game hints you where to go is very subtle and works wonders without sticking out too much. Story is very open to interpretation.

Note: Seriously, whats wrong with videogames and little long-haired girls being so creepy!

Casual game, nice puzzles, story is entertaining. You can finish it in one sitting. Music is nicely syncronized with the charcaters's movement.

Fun for a while until you realize there is no story, and it is just one level repeating over and over. This is purely an "arcade" high score game.

I haven't played the base game, but this stand alone DLC was very entertaining. Yes, it's only 5 missions (3 big and 2 short) but it was very enjoyable (and also frustrating... it's difficult), and taking into account that each missions will take probably 2 hours to complete , it was a good game. I like the stealth element of the gameplay.

This game is beautiful. The imagery is amazing, make a pause whenever you discover a new piece of story, rotate the camera and enjoy the view.
Don't activate the commentary, it will spoil the whole experience in the first minute of the game.

Nice turn-based strategy game once you get the hang of it.
The only negative/positive thing (depending how you see it) is that one miscalculation can throw your hole campaign to the trash. Campaign is not longh, though, about 9 missions if you go straight to the final stage.

Fun for a couple of matches.. after 10 or so you will notice all the issues with the gameplay, even considering that its gameplay is more arcade-style than sim-style.
Cool if you are a wrestling fan but don't want to fully invest your time in a main 2k series.

I waited 4 years to finally buy this game for cheap ($2.00 - ultimate) just to play the story mode. Having said that, I really enjoyed it, nice story telling. I don't play online/competitive so I don't know much about the gameplay. I have played the original series (1, 2, 3 & trilogy back in the day) and the new series (9,10 and 11) and this is a great game... the only negative I can tell is the grinding for the krypt... it is just too much.

Now I'll wait 4 more years to play the new MK1...

Two years and still waiting for the master league... The game has become a little better... not quite there yet.

2023

[Free demo]: Since I only played the demo all I can review is the mechanics of the game. It's a well executed "match-3" style puzzle, graphics are nice, music is very relaxing. The way you can create combos makes you think ahead of your moves.

It took me about 2 hours to finish/lose the demo level, very easy to get bonus during gameplay.

If the full version of the game had an story or a reason for you to be building these towns, I think I would keep playing, but for the demo, once you are done with it there is nothing to make you want to play more. Gameplay style is quite simple, in a positive way.

If you played the OG Top Gear, this is the game for you. 100% arcade fun.

Not good at all. Controls feel terrible, very slow paced, a lot of input lag unless you start tweaking the video settings. Collisions feel off. It is just a "keep hiting until dead".

Even playing cooperative doesn't make it fun.

One of the funniest games of the era. Simple as that. The story is totaly absurd but but the goofy enemies make it totally work.

They don't make games like this anymore.
