    КАК ЖЕ ЭТО ПРЕКРАСНО
    Невероятно интересный и динамичный геймплей и уникальной визуальной стилистикой. Ещё и необычная механика замедленного времени в неподвижном состоянии и гипербыстрое время во время перемещеня, заставляющая продумывать стратегию своих действий и быстро адаптироваться к непредвединной ситуации (ведь пока ты думаешь - пули продолжают лететь в твою сторону)    КАК ЖЕ ЭТО ПРЕКРАСНО

    Every once in a while you see a game that had a GREAT Idea. The idea shows players that new concepts in gaming still exist. An experience that brings you back to some of the best games you have ever played. Seldom if ever does the Creative Direction and follow-through push that great idea even higher. The Creative direction was a throwback to the 90s, executed flawlessly. Great job.

    This game is a work of art, definitely worth buying at a bargain price when its on sale, although it is short at just 3 hours to complete, this game is extremely difficult at the end, the story is ok, and the gameplay is superb, definitely worth trying.

    Uzun süredir denk geliyordum ama sadece zamanı yavaşlatma mekaniği olan bir oyun sanıyordum. Dün deneyimleme fırsatını buldum. Hikayesi varmış ve benim hoşuma gitti değişik bir gizem katıyor. Oynanış desen gayet güzel. Ekip özenerek yapmış oyunu ve ortaya keyifli vakit geçirilebilecek bir oyun çıkartmışlar. Hele end creditte adamların notları falan :) cidden helal olsun yani.Uzun süredir denk geliyordum ama sadece zamanı yavaşlatma mekaniği olan bir oyun sanıyordum. Dün deneyimleme fırsatını buldum.

    SUPERHOT is one of the most innovative shooters I've ever played! No really, its has been 5 years since the game has come out and it is still a great game with unique mechanics and combat puzzles.

    SUPERHOT quickly dragged me in by its strong atmosphere, mysterious story, original concept full of fresh ideas, good level design, many ways to succeed, challenging yet not frustrating difficulty, simple and responsive controls, stylish graphics and atmospheric sounds. It has brought fresh new mechanics to the first person genre and makes you feel like the hero of a Hong Kong action movie dancing between the slow motion bullets and killing a lot of enemies in many ways. Have I even found any cons in this game? Well, maybe the enemies could be more variable and the game menu could be less confusing as it might take a while to find some important settings there.
    Is it suitable for family playing? Well, definitely for fellow gaming fathers themselves. As for the kids, despite there is no blood or drastic scenes it is still a violent game so, I would recommend it for the age 10+ at least.

    Pros:
    - atmosphere
    - story
    - original concept
    - level design
    - many possible solutions
    - balanced difficulty
    - controls
    - graphics and sounds

    Cons:
    - variability of enemies
    - confusing game menu

    I have really enjoyed playing SUPERHOT. It was a very original and intensive experience for me and thus I am giving it Thumbs Up and VideoGaming Father’s Index 9+ out of 10 - highly recommended!    … Expand

    'Superhot' strikes right where nobody expected it back in the days. Benefiting from a terrific scenario, a gorgeous artistic direction and a more-than-original gameplay, playing it the first time felt like a real blessing. Levels design is so surprising. Sound design is just awesome. Narrative is top notch.

Sound design is just awesome. Narrative is top notch. While the color system rightly looks pretty awful with all those white, gray and red textures, I ended up focusing on the opponents because they totally evoke the feeling of evolving in a weird matrix.

    It is both tactical and intuitive. I've rarely seen a game where repetitiveness was a good thing, because in 'Superhot' it is: you might want to try the levels over and over again, just to explore all the possibilities of creating the most badass killcam in the end. No spoil but the ending is truly worth the wait and efforts. It seems to be a simple die and retry type of game at first glance but soon you'll realize that there is a sense of progression throughout.

    Quem gosta de um bom FPS Single Player simplesmente deve dar uma chance a SUPERHOT.
    Sua jogabilidade é perfeita, imersiva, e muito bem elaborada.
    Questões gráficas, sonoras e de enredo são quase imperceptíveis, pois todo o brilho do jogo está na sua gameplay.

    Simplemente genial, te engancha desde el inicio y simplemente es imposible dejar de jugar. Tiene niveles muy buenos y no te cansas nunca por la constante introducción de mecánicas. Sin entrar en spoilers, la historia no esta mal, aunque no es su punto fuerte pero tiene uno de los gameplays mas innovadores que he visto. Debes jugarlo? Simplemente si, es imperdible.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. recenzja SUPERHOT po polsku:
    1. Fabuła- Fabuła jest jest świetna gra zadaje pytania na które nigdy nie odpowiada. Robi to jednak tak przyzwoicie że, w tym wypadku jest to wykonane jak dzieło sztuki. Fabuła (10/10)
    2. Rozgrywka- Rozgrywka jest dość trudna na początku lecz do wyuczenia na + napewno opcja swobodnego rzucania bronią. Każda broń (palna) ma swoje przeznaczenie (Karabin- Długie serie z możliwością zabicia wielu wrogów. Shotgun- Krótki zasięg jest świetnie rekompensowany przez rozrzut. Pistolet- Precyzyjna broń. Kiepska na grupe wrogów wybiegających na nas razem, ale w przypadku stopniowego napierania przeciwników sprawia się niezastąpienie).
    Sporą wadą gry jest to że, dynamiczna rozgrywka jest przerywana RETROCHATAMI które są formą narracji opowieści. Przeszkadza się to w realnym wciągnięciu się w gameplay jeżeli tylko na tym nam zależy.
    KONKLUZJA: Granie w SUPERHOT nie interesując się fabułą i ją skipując robimy podobnie jak jedząc kotlet schabowy bez panierki.
    Gra zdecydowanie na dyche bardzo przyjemna wciągająca. ~KaenBoi    … Expand

    The gameplay is really original and interesting, and succesful runs will make you feel like a total badass. It's really amazing how intricate the gameplay can be while consisting of a very, very limited pool of actions (Maybe too limited, in fact - At times I was really annoyed Superhot doesn't allow you to crouch). Great level design (both gameplay and narration-wise) elevates the game's quality, as it keeps on throwing you into interesting set-pieces that menage to feel fresh all the way through. However, the trial and error nature of the game can become slightly irritating. Sometimes playing it felt more like solving a half-random puzzle rather than making quick decisions in a reactive environment. Fortunetly, Superhot perfectly understands its own gimmicky nature and never outstays its welcome.

    While a lot of people critized the brief story mode, I enjoyed it for what it was and found the shorter, but more intense experience to be a better option than a slower paced one - Simply because the game would become tiresome and boring before the story, no matter how good it was, would reach any sort of conclusion.

    The storyline, in fact, is one of the most interesting things about the game - It is surprisingly good... Or, err, decent, because of how obnoxiously it treats itself. As far as (micro spoiler!) transhuman-themed games go, Superhot reminded me of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 a lot. However, if BO3 was the shy kid who was afraid to admit how witty he can really be (therefore facading a surprisingly deep storyline as a generic sci-fi tale to the point in which most players didn't even realise what was really going on), then Superhot is the annoying little brat who keeps on jumping around and screaming "LOOK AT ME I AM CLEVER I AM META!!!" and you want to just smack the little sh*t. However, you can't really do that, because the story really *is* quite clever. I loved how simple it starts and how big it ends, plus the DOS menu stuff is top-notch. Still, the way the game treats itself is literaly worse than Bioshock. Jeez.

    A lot of praise needs to be given to the audiovisual layer - While minimalistic, the graphics are surprisingly moody and detailed, with a lot of the narrative told through visual storytelling. They are also beautifuly functional. The soundtrack is very atmospheric and fits the game perfectly.

    In total, despite some issues, Superhot is a must-play. While not everything works as it should have, and the gameplay is nothing more than a one-off gimmick, it's damn good to see that you can make an FPS that's totaly different to what has come before.    … Expand

    Superhot makes everything you do look unbelievably stylish, but offers so little content that three hours with the game was enough for me. It needs more varied enemies, a broader arsenal, larger stages. I believe Superhot’s innovative mechanics can be squeezed for more and I’m looking forward to a sequel. [04/2016, p.54]
