    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. So, another Serious Sam bundle mod.

    At first, I thought, what is there to say. There are many Serious Sam Gold Editions, we have Serious Sam Fusion 2017, HD Remakes etc., what makes this different? At first, nothing, it is the First Encounter and Second Encounter, bundled into one program. But then I saw “Bright Island” in the campaign options. This was unfamiliar for me, so I think I found the main difference here with the other bundle games. It has a completely new, custom-made campaign.

    The Bright Island campaign is a lot of fun, despite some players hating it as far as I saw. It introduces new levels, new enemies (or rather modded and merged versions of original enemies) like cute little Ugh-Zhan models, new weapons which are quite overpowered and new soundtracks. It has fewer levels then the First and/or Second Encounter but the levels are a whole lot longer which gives the impression that it is a quite long campaign.

    I found it amusing to find some of the Bright Island weapons in the First and Second Encounter, despite that you can only use them once because the ammo is not replenished anytime in the game.

    Nothing changed in terms of graphics. In fact, they are even worse than the original games. I don’t know what happened, but tearing and visible outlines are so common that I mistook a border graphic line for a secret ledge with some goodies on it. Sound wise, except the new soundtracks from the Bright Island campaign (which I liked actually) nothing changed.

    Even though I liked Serious Sam Classics: Revolution, it still has some issues like a messy start, glitched achievements and the weird graphical glitches that occur all the time. In terms of the achievements (something that motivates me always to play a certain game), it has some legit challenges to complete, which I enjoyed very much. But, like many games, it also had some ridiculous grind achievements like kill 100.001 enemies, something that requires you to play all three campaigns like ten times each or something to get it “naturally”.

    In conclusion, the only reason I recommend this version of Serious Sam is because it has something original and new to offer, namely Bright Island. For me it was a moment of refreshment, after playing the original games countless time.    … Full Review »

    As of this review date I cannot recommend Serious Sam Classics: Revolution as it’s still a buggy mess. It’s unfinished; it lacks polish withAs of this review date I cannot recommend Serious Sam Classics: Revolution as it’s still a buggy mess. It’s unfinished; it lacks polish with terrible pacing and difficulty issues with the original games as well as the Bright Island campaign. Add to that unstable servers that will randomly cut you off, crashing and achievements that might not unlock after hard progress. I know it’s free if you bought the original games but Croteam need to sort these problems out if they want something that’s more than 50% playable. Back to Early Access until much needed improvements have been made.… Full Review »
