« this game is great. i get to cut up kkk members with sickles. thats literally my life long dream! »👍 anonymous review · Jan 2026 · 22 h played111« damn, Twilight Princess sure looks very different from the last time i played it many years ago, but hey, glad Nintendo ported it over to PC! »👍 anonymous review · May 2026 · 11 h played1« Nice gameplay, the game has incorporated the best features from classic FPS from 90th. Separately want to mention cool background music, which I like to listen when work in noisy environment. »👍 anonymous review · Apr 2026 · 33 h played1« Simple, fun, unsettling, quick. The game play is deeper than it looks. I learned this near the end of the game the sickles can reflect. »👍 anonymous review · Jan 2026 · 12 h played1« Pretty fun. Great to play after you beat ultrakill. played multyplayer with my mom. she stinks but its still fun. »👍 anonymous review · Oct 2025 · 12 h played1« This game is fawking amazing my only issue is that you cant transition into a slide from a jump and crouching mid jump takes away momentum »👍 anonymous review · Jul 2026 · 4 h played1
« The first episode is a 10/10 experience but the game becomes incredibly repetetive after that. There arent any new weapons after the first chapter and the enemies are all just reskins »👎 anonymous review · Feb 2026 · 12 h played1« The game is quite solid mechanics-wise, but for me it was one of the least interesting boomer shooters I have ever played. »👎 anonymous review · Oct 2025 · 1 h played11« On ne peut pas décemment le comparer à Doom Hexen etc. Très moche, difficile de faire pire. Rien à dire sur la jouabilité, c'est pas mal. Mais c'est vraiment moche et sommaire. Les niveaux sont ridiculement courts. »👎 anonymous review · Nov 2022 · 0 h played« Remember that meme where i guy eating a sandwich says: "i mean, its alright... like... overrated in my opinion" Gameplay is very simple, and enemies are sincerely irritating. Mullet jack or post void are WAY better. »👎 anonymous review · Apr 2026 · 4 h played« playing this game feels like doing chores »👎 anonymous review · Jun 2026 · 2 h played« Something tells me the devs of this game really, REALLY like Doom, Quake, Duke3D, and Half Life. »👍 anonymous review · Jul 2026 · 8 h played1
