I got my first ever legendary weapon which was a shotgun with explosive ammo so i was like "ok i have 120 health let me see if i can propel myself off the floor" nope the moment i shot the ground i died and lost the weapon 10 seconds after getting it. 10/10 game would recommend.

One of the best rogue-like shooters i've played! Imagine DOOM but its rogue-like. I LOVE how the game starts, there is no intro, no main menu everytime you boot the game up you start in a mental hospital as a patient, feels home right? The game has it all, music made by Andrew Hulshult who is known for great boomer shooter music. He also worked on the DOOM ancient gods OST. Gameplay has infinite replay and never gets boring. Graphics are beautiful and charming. Game has a huge variety of weapons and my personal favorite is the gore / blood effects! The game has even COOP - so you could team up with a friend and go through the nightmare together! Game is 10/10 - Totally worth getting yourself a copy (or two) on discount!

You reap what you sow and I saw what you reaped. This game follows the mental state of my mother before she gave birth to me. But seriously, this is a fantastic roguelite retro shooter with beautiful pixel-art, fun core gameplay loop, ridiculous weapons which are always a positive surprise and sometimes overpowered which is a welcome trait. The music slaps and my only complaint is that some of the later stages seem a little bit unfair and overwhelming. But what I need to mention is that the dev is constantly improving everything, adding new content. I finished the game before he added co-op, so if you have some friends you have to try it 'cause I can already tell it's going to be a bigger blast with a buddy shooting holy bullets from an Uzi while you throw fishsticks at demons and recite the lyrics to Linkin Park's Crawling while doing so. 10/10, would face my demons once again, but sadly I took care of all of them (but my ex-mother in law is out there somewhere... she's the only one still breathing. But it's hard to kill Satan).

I've been playing FPS games since the Wolfenstein 3d demo that only contained the first Episode (up to the first boss). Nightmare Reaper has singlehandedly ruined what is known today as "boomer shooters" for me, as it simply encompasses damn near everything I was ever looking for in an FPS game, particularly this subgenre. It contains elements of Wolfenstein 3d, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Ultimate Doom/Doom 2, Doom 2016, Hexen and Borderlands and tosses them into a blender with incredible results. Whether you're interested in a melee focus, a sniper, dual wielding with guns blazing or whatever else you're into, there's probably a loadout here that suits you. The levels are randomly generated and yet done so intelligently (no Daggerfall style abominations here - no offense to Daggerfans). This keeps runs fresh and consistently challenging - it kind of feels like Brutal Doom but with more *controlled* chaos and polish than Brutal Doom had. Whether you're just playing a quick map or settling in for hours at a time, this game keeps you consistently hooked and there's always something to strive for whether it be the next amazing weapon or the next skill upgrade. Definitely a huge recommendation from me to anyone who is even remotely interested in old school FPS. It's a love letter to the classics with enough innovation and creativity to be its own unique entry, and frankly, I think it's the best "retro style" shooter ever crafted. I think it even dethrones Doom 2 for me, which I never thought I'd ever say about any FPS game. Doom 2 and its challenging .wads gave me plenty of joy for years, but Nightmare Reaper does everything I ever needed an FPS to do and more. It's hard go back and enjoy the classics now as anything more than historical pieces.
