    A lot like a more realistic version of Soldat. Less silly stuff like jetpacks and health kits, and more fast kills and stealth. If you liked Soldat, you'll like BRAIN / OUT.

    Alright buckle up kiddies, and before you start complaining about the "bullsh*t invisible enemies" git gud and learn the game An amazing combo of progression and fair gunplay, your enemy might be level 169, but bullet's in the head don't care what level you are. Ok developers, here is how you make this game even greater Seperate community games who can be personal server run and moddable (even a higher player cap!) and competitive, which is where you get your progression and competetive play, but until then add some more gamemodes and maps.

    It is suprisingly fun and balanced, no p2w, you can buy boxes with loot but you can also get them for free. It still needs some work but i highly recommend trying it out since it is free and alot of fun.

    Not pay-2-win and is all about skill, explosives are OP as they should be in real life, it's like a real life 2D Pixel FPS. Worth a shot but not for all people.
