    Butcher is a living relic, a callback to the days when being gritty and macabre was a goal unto itself. But make no mistake: beneath that gruff exterior is a thoughtfully crafted game.

Mechanics, fun and pixels. Just a few more pixels would've helped. Also I personally think it's too difficult as well - I get that you're trying to be 'hardcore', but for me, and seemingly a big part of the people who gave this game a shot, this just killed the fun within minutes of playing the game, seeing as only 30% of players on Steam complete the first level. I would've preferred if it would've been more easy to get into and then got gradually harder instead of being frustrating in the first level. Full Review »
