    Great beat'em up, pixelart is top notch. The fact that it's one of those rare games in what you can kill communists, makes it double fun! If you like violent pixel games like Hotline Miami this one you will like as well.

    Great game, fun and brutal and a nice story. I especially recommend it if you liked the style of Hotline Miami.
    Also, the game is about fighting the Russian mafia in the USSR, so honestly I don't get why everyone starts complaining as soon as Russians are involved... no one calls anyone americophobic for games based in America, huh?

    Streets of Rage meets Hotline Miami. An awesome mixture.
    The gameplay is pretty good, classic fast-paced action.
    The difficulty is damn high, good for a challenge.
    Story is kinda like a prequel to hotline miami.
    The artstyle is the good kind of retro too.

    Congratulation to the Cartel which succeeded has to restore me the first shivers of Streets of rage.
    Mother Russia Bleeds is simply the perfect compromise between a gameplay newschool (more nervous than Streets of rage, more elaborate outfits of knocks) and an atmosphere oldschool.
    It hits(burns), that bleeds, that explodes in all directions, the amateurs of violence will be served

    The story is also more developed than most of the other games of this kind

    Fun and atmospheric, the game grips you from the starting screen by your nostalgia and then throws you into artistic and ultra-violent gameplay, seen through modern nihilistic glasses of post-soviet apocalypse.

    I dont get negative reviews. Its class of its own - there is no other beatem up on the market as good as this one. Highly enjoyable, highly recommended (if Youre adult, not for childrens).

    P.S. Russophobic? Dont make me laugh, Youre overreacting. Besides Russia is a bit strange country, dont You think? Check russian driving compilation. Check what police does to car drivers in Russia -

    Besides Russia is a bit strange country, dont You think? Check russian driving compilation. Check what police does to car drivers in Russia - exactly what You do in this game - beat the crap out of drivers :) Type Russia in Youtube and check all the videos. Your nation seems to be drunk and violent, You all are responsible that we get this impression, not by a video game which is plain fun. Not to mention what Ruskis do for instance in Ukraine - blame Yourself instead of blaming others.

    This game is a near-perfect, lasciviously-brutal beat-'em-up experience. You could call it Street of Rage painted with a layer of Hotline Miami and liberally smeared with Soviet-era filth, but even that is doing the game a disservice.

You could call it Street of Rage painted with a layer of Hotline Miami and liberally smeared with Soviet-era filth, but even that is doing the game a disservice. From the stylistical visuals to the intoxicating soundtrack by Fixions, from the satisfying crunch of smashing a mobster's skull to paste to the blissful crack of fire spewing from the barrel of a bloodstained AK-47, this game is an experience to be savored. The controls are tight and responsive, and the combat is light enough to easily learn while still deep enough to keep you on your toes to the very end. Enemies are varied, not only in appearance but in behavior and preferred manner of attack, forcing you to constantly adapt to changing situations, especially when stage hazards present themselves.

    There's nothing else to say. Get this game now, товарищ.

    Is Mother Russia Bleeds the game that is worth your money and attention? There are many pros in it - disturbing story, number of possible attacks, character selection, number of weapons, the drugs using mechanics, variety of enemies and environments, responsive controls, challenging yet not frustrating difficulty, beautiful graphics, dynamic music and realistic sounds. What are the downsides? The explicit violence and drugs using that make the game inappropriate for kids, the absence of character development and also the absence of dubbing. There is a local co-op multiplayer which for sure makes the game even more entertaining if you find the right person to play with as this is the kind of game that your kids should stay out of.

    Pros:
    - story
    - number of attacks
    - character selection
    - number of weapons
    - drugs using mechanics
    - variety of enemies and environments
    - controls
    - reasonable difficulty
    - graphics
    - music and sounds

    Cons:
    - inappropriate for kids
    - no character development
    - absence of dubbing

    Mother Russia Bleeds is as rough and unpleasant as life in Soviet Russia was (at least for most of the people) but it is also funny and addictive (and not because of drug usage) and the game itself does not have many cons. Although it is not the game suitable for family playing it is still a good game for fellow gaming fathers and their (adult) friends and I am therefore giving it Thumbs Up and VideoGaming Father’s index 8+ out of 10 - recommended.

    Mother Russia bleeds takes you back to the good old 80s and arcade machines. It’s gory, it’s brutal, it’s fun, it’s nostalgic. Don’t miss it.

    MRB’s most notable aspect is its nice pixel art, but I don’t think that’s enough to recommend this game, especially if you’re thinking on playing it alone. [12/2016, p.42]

    Delightfully demented but lacking knockout power. For good and bad, a sidescrolling, sin-stuffed brawler. [Nov 2016, p.75]
