Oct. 2025
absolute old school spirit, with a lot of jank. "Russian Half Life" is not really the worst descriptor for this game. i found myself woefully addicted to this though just from the gameplay and level design alone. the physics based puzzles were interesting, if a bit repetitive with the batteries, and the fights were all really well paced, bar one of the last ones which frankly had too many enemies that it becomes an overwhelming gauntlet that requires either RNG or cheats due to how item spawns work. overall though, it feels like a game made by a guy with a vision and an idea of good game design. a lot of the encounters are well paced and don't overwhelm you too much, there are a lot of interestingly designed levels, some with unique gimmicks, and gameplay is the bombastic "play what you got" type shtick. it really leans into old school gameplay dynamics with each enemy playing differently, but not having counters be so riggid that dealing with them becomes annoying and unfulfilling. it's a kind of arcadey stupid fun that i wish more games dared to offer. most modern games seem to have to be designed with some deeper gameplay purpose or have to have a particularly engaged combat loop, but Vladik Brutal just gives you the toys and says "go half fun". if you're expecting each tool to be purpose built, you're going to be a bit disappointed. honestly, i wasn't expecting much of anything out of this game. even watching gameplay, i only saw a janky indie shooter with bad enemy models. the more i played, the more i wanted to play. the more i wanted to dig deeper into the gameplay and experiment with it. i got it on sale, but this is well worth more than even the basic price of admission. 12 bucks is definitely a good deal on this game, and though the story wasn't particularly riveting, i found it complementary enough to the carnage on screen, which is enough for me. if you're apprehensive about this, and just want an old school dumb fun shooter that feels unbalanced in some of the best ways, please play this. the gameplay overall is tight but fun, very free form, but doesn't pigeonhole you into playing too specifically. the gunplay is punchy, the enemies are diverse and interesting in their own ways, and the level design, though somewhat basic, has some pretty good looking set pieces. it's also very lenient on resources, as the game offers dozens of caches that can pick you up any time your down. what are you waiting for? get playin!

I see a lot of people in the reviews saying that this game is a "Indie Russian Half-Life" and after playing it, I can't think of a more fitting description. It is a few hour-long FPS, (apparently made by a single developer) that takes heavy inspiration from Valve's main franchise. It has fast gameplay, very "punchy" gunplay and is decently optimised (although it did crash twice on me during my playthrough). Well worth the price IMO, I've played several FPS games that were of worse quality while being several times more expensive.

The game isn't bad and can certainly be beautiful in it's own kind of way at certain locations, also the gunplay is top notch. The only bad thing I could say about it is that the story doesn't really make any sense and that the hardest difficulty is kind of makes the last missions an absolute chore to get throug, my pc even started dropping to like 7 fps because of the amount of bodies littering the floor. Other than that I'd say it's a pretty accurate simulator of an average day in Russia.
