    One of the best games of this year. Beautiful visual novel with hardcore gameplay elements, awesome soundtrack, heartstopping story and a ton of easter eggs.
    May be a little repetitive at start, but story kicks in after two hours, and ending are interesting.
    Definitely check this game.

    A game with an interesting world, in the popular setting, with a tasty text composition, proper pacing and piquant action scenes, the correct rhythm of the narration is supported by trips to a quality soundtrack

    Few. Really little. I passed the game in 5 hours, and taking into account the deaths, pokatushek by car and train, which take up a good third of the game, if not more. Well, the second significant claim is management, the main difficulty in it. The struggle is not with the enemies, but with control. As it seems to me, the management from enter the gungeon would ideally approach, still toFew. Really little.

As it seems to me, the management from enter the gungeon would ideally approach, still to fix places where it seems that it is possible to get through, but actually it not so. But then the game would run for about 3 hours, or even faster. I feel the potential in the guys, Ilya got a cool universe, the music is excellent (boar kreygasm), Levchuk is higher than any praise. Objectively put 7, but neobetevno game like stronger. Thanks for the game, we are waiting and we hope that mehsoft will please us even more… Expand

    GOOD:

    GREAT MUSIC
    BEAUTIFUL ART DESIGN
    EXCELLENT ANIMATIONS AND INTERESTING VARIATY OF GAME MECHANICS
    A LOT OF GREAT DIALOGS WITH INTERESTING EASTER-EGGS AND SARCASTIC JOKES

    BAD:

    TRIVIAL GAME SCRIPT
    BUGS
    ACTION FIGHT SCENES ARE BORING AND AWFUL

    Левчук просто гений я стал его фаном, какой стиль, а какая рисовка ммммм просто 10 из 10
    Так же анимации, звуки тоже хорошие Треки, хоть и не люблю «пердеж», но они неплохие Сюжет если вы не любите стримы Ильи он скорее всего не понравиться, да и в этой игре сюжет не главное Имхо Хочется ещё сказать на счёт вождения которое многим не нравиться, я вот посидел подумал, а чем можно    12/10

    The gameplay is weakly similar to the one that was in the trailer. The combat system underwent a major change: on the way out, it's not a turn-based combat no more, it's rather a meaningless tiresome arcade shooter, interspersed with literally tons of poorly written unedited text that takes half the screen.

    The game has its atmosphere, interesting ideas drawn from Hollywood media culture, there is an excellent soundtrack from Dj Artifix, there are stylish background images from the promising Belarusian artist Igor Levchuk, but at the same time suffers from dampness, ill-considered gameplay and poor leadership, due to which the development lasted more than a year. Terrible pin-ups with well-known in narrow circles streamer girls, whose name you'll never know, only once again reminds of a strong budget deficit which a small ambitious team Mehsoft had to work with.

    Do I recommend playing this game? Probably not. It's better to wait for the Hollywood adaptation.    … Expand
