Low poly holiday in brown town. Trusty super shotgun included. Spam E against every wall for secrets. Another exercise in scumming on Very Hard. Having an army of doggos eating all the rats was cool. Viscera Cleanup was also a nice gag. Fun levels at just the right size. The egg drop game was nerve racking.

Honestly one of the most hilarious shooters I've played. Don't be fooled by the droning ambiance or the monochromatic colour scheme, this game is *very* silly.

I can't really point out why, but this game scratches an itch for bleak old school fps

This is the kind of game that big studios have forgotten how to make. Incredibly atmospheric and filled with tons of hidden secrets and Easter eggs. Solid boomer shooter gunplay with creatively designed levels. The custom engine presents you with some very unique visuals and great performance. The setting is super cool as well, I'm a big fan of the Stalker games and old Soviet architecture so it was a joy to explore the environments. You can really tell this game was made by a gamer FOR gamers with all the little interactive tidbits in the world. I love everything about this game.
