    The few times that the RNG in BPM: Bullets Per Minute actually managed to put together a set of weapons and abilities that allowed for significant progress, the game shined, but it's just not worth the hours of suffering failed runs and mistimed shots. To borrow the game's own 90s shooter comparisons, playing BPM is like diving into Doom on Ultra Nightmare before learning how to play an FPS. The fun is still there, but it's buried under so many roadblocks and complications. The frustrating end result is a game with a great idea that bungles just about every part of the execution.

Its a perfect mix of rhythm heaven, doom, and the binding of issac. It's a quite difficult game, but that's what I enjoy about it, easy to learn, crazy difficult to master, though I do wish it had an option to change the difficulty. Admittedly it has some other problems, mainly having to do with the rng totally screwing you over sometimes, but I've never personally had many problems with it. But I think it's well worth the price, so if you want the challenge, and have the money, I highly recommend you play it!… Full Review »

    Great gameplay is almost (but not quite) enough to save a game that's desperately thin on content, context, and replayability.

    Топовая игра, а саунд просто пушка.
    К визуалу быстро привыкаешь, а солянка жанров выдаёт очень уникальный и приятный опыт.    Топовая игра, а саунд просто пушка.
