TLDR: Max Payne meets John Wick in a game that absolutely nails the adrenaline rush of stylish gunplay, even if the lack of leaderboards makes the score system feel pointless and replay value suffers for it. PROS: ➕Great gunplay ➕Oldboy fight scene reference ➕3rd-person mode CONS: ➖Restarting from a checkpoint after dying doesn’t start you with what you had before dying, often snowballing into more deaths ➖AI is often very dumb and just walks into hazards and die ➖Lacks replay value ➖Missed opportunity - zero online aspects in a score-based game/No leaderboards Content (Game world/Narrative) – The game world consists of various different levels in different cities around the globe, areas like from Miami to Tokyo. There’s very little exploration here with the occasional side path for a secret, so the levels are very linear. There is no narrative other than a short description at the beginning of each level. Gameplay (Mechanics/Difficulty) – The gameplay loop is simple and is either killing waves of enemies, or killing waves of enemies while navigating through levels and doing small puzzles. Generally, you have 2 ways to dispatch enemies - guns and melee. Guns have a strict bullet limit with ammo being scarce, but you do get single-bullet drops from some enemy deaths as well as filling up your entire clip from an execution, which is performed by meleeing enemies a few times then hitting E. There’s also Max Payne-like abilities with a dive and a slo-mo that is based on your stamina and quickly drains. But that’s really it - nothing spectacular or new, but what it has is good. The difficulty is fairly high. I played on “Normal” mode which is called Licensed, and is a step up from the lowest difficulty. You get 2 shots before you die and you start at the nearest checkpoint. Some levels are just waves of enemies over and over and other levels are boss fights with a lot of health and firepower, so death is a fairly constant thing. Technical (Graphics/Performance) – Graphical fidelity is good, but nothing amazing, I’d say around early PS4-era. Reflections are notably terrible. Animations and physics are good. Technical side is fine, I noticed no issues playing on max settings. Bugs are a few, mostly getting stuck in things, or physics-related issues with the bodies. I didn’t notice anything gamebreaking. 1440p @ 240hz | installed on SSD Audio – Music varies greatly. Some levels are boring and others (Cathedral) are fire. Sound effects are normal and there is no voice acting other than typical fight grunts. Replay Factor (Longevity) – I don’t think this game has a huge amount of replay value, which is a shame. It really needs an online component, like leaderboards, otherwise the scores that you get at the end of each level feel a bit meaningless. Really, the only reason to replay the game’s levels seem to be for achievements or beating your own score. Final Verdict – Suit for Hire (SfH) is a modern Max Payne mixed with John Wick. The adrenaline rush gunplay, a blend of shooting and fighting, is a near-perfect example of what a John Wick game adaptation would be. SfH doesn’t offer much else, but what it does offer, it does well. First the negative parts. SfH has a big lack of longevity with its gameplay loop, which is surprising to me since it’s so score-oriented. Unfortunately, SfH lacks any sort of online components, rending the purpose of scoring to be irrelevant other than trying to best your own personal score. This is a game that sorely needs leaderboards, if there ever was one. Aside from the massive issue of replay value, SfH doesn’t offer much aside from simple level skirmishes that often take a few minutes. Some of the levels, like the final few Caribbean levels, feel like a cop-out with simple targets that should have been in training levels. There’s no real narrative, so don’t expect something like Max Payne or John Wick, this is purely gameplay focused. And the AI is often dumb as heck. I’ve literally seen a guy throw a grenade at me and then run towards me to melee me with his weapon and die to his own grenade. To end on a positive note, those are mostly minor complaints that don't detract from the experience as a whole (maybe the replay value is poor though). SfH is such a great experience. There are times when I’m plowing through enemies in slo-mo, diving and head shotting, that few games can really nail. The mere fact that I’m comparing this game to another game that came out 20 years ago and a movie is a point that stands where we don’t have a lot of options for these types of “Hitman on a rampage” games, and I wish there was more. Overall, SfH is an easy recommendation for a simple shooter game that hyper-focuses on the best parts of games like Max Payne. There’s no fluff or drama to get in the way, just grab a gun and kill in the most awesome way possible. Recommend? (Price) [Y/N] Yes $15 base is a good base amount for the type of “Shallower” systems that this game has. $10 is a better price point due to replay value issues.

Suit for Hire is an amazing indie shooter that absolutely satisfies the itch for John Wick-esque combat while we wait for the big-budget official game to bless our screens. The gun-fu and close-quarters takedowns are ridiculously fun and feel like they were pulled straight from the John Wick movies. You'll recognize several maps inspired by classic action films, along with some easter egg levels nodding to Counter-Strike (Rush B), Call of Duty, and Mirror's Edge. If you get tired of the campaign, the game also features dedicated Arena Levels, which are basically survival modes where you can test your combat flow against endless waves of barely trained goons. The NPCs can be pretty dumb, but honestly, that's kind of the point. One feature I really liked was the ability to switch camera perspectives whenever you want. I spent most of my time in the third-person view because it gave me strong Max Payne vibes, especially with the slow-motion dives. The top-down mode is also surprisingly fun and makes the game feel like a modern 3D version of Hotline Miami. The difficulty depends a lot on your skill level. I have decent experience with shooters, so I breezed through it, but someone completely new to the genre might end up eating pavement a few times. The soundtrack is fine. The story barely exists. But honestly, neither of those things matter here. This game knows exactly what it wants to be: a stylish action sandbox where you mow through enemies and look cool doing it. It's absolutely worth the full price. In fact, the combat is so good that I genuinely feel a little guilty for buying it on sale. If this tiny dev team gets enough time and funding in the future, they're going to cook up something really special.
Fun and cool game for the quick "one shot - one kill" gameplay. If you are precise, it's super satisfying to mow down various enemies in a quick succession. There are quite a lot of levels. Most of them are pretty small. Only one maze level took me like 15 minutes or so to complete. Otherwise most levels take 4-8 minutes. There is even a dust 2 map in this one haha. The only few flaws of this game is that the walking and sprinting speed is just a bit too slow. And the Max Payne'ish slowdown jumps feel super clunky. Other than that - it's a well done game which doesn't overstay its welcome.
This game satisfies the neurodivergent urge to hit a man with a Judo technique you can't pronounce and shoot him in the head. I'm not even joking, the kani basami into gunshot to the back of the head combo was banned in competition Judo for a reason. Too dangerous to the competitor's knees. This game could probably add something, but I struggle to imagine much other than more levels and weapons.
Suit for Hire is an insanely fast-paced top-down shooter, inspired by Max Payne, Hotline Miami, and of course, John Wick. It’s a genuine fun ride - about 10 hours long and it doesn't get you bored. Moreover, while it borrows a little from each of those classics, it still cannot manage to surpass any of them. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it, though, it doesn't serve as an example of a widely recognized, top-notch game.
