A bloodthirsty, psychopathic mercenary who wants nothing more than to marry her wonderful boyfriend Athens Fetter. Problem is money's tight, and rings aren't exactly cheap. But thankfully there may be hope for her yet, as a warlock named Cromune has acquired a rather hefty bounty on his head. He's being accompanied by a small fraction of the U.S.C. (The United Scientific Conglomerate) Lead by Dr Mortice. Which means he's got a small army defending him. But what's an army to someone who's taken on a legion? What're a few hundred soldiers to death incarnate?

    Nothing but a slaughter... Nay... A viscerafest.

    In summary, Viscerafest is a carnage-fun experience and I enjoyed every second of it, though some of the in-game graphics could do with a polish, it can’t be overlooked for its gameplay mechanics and absolute blast of a journey. To my surprise, the main protagonist has become one of my favourites. Retro shooter fans should definitely pick this one up!

    Viscerafest is a frantic boomer shooter set in a retro sci-fi universe painted with big pixels with a neon palette reminiscent of the vicious color schemes of the 1980s. The mercenary protagonist is a love letter to Duke Nukem, engaging in ultra-violent shooting and impossible jumps along labyrinthine levels overflowing with aliens and bosses to be riddled with bullets until they turn to pulp. The option of collecting skulls to use as currency at stores to buy cheats invites replaying maps already completed in search of secret areas or simply for revenge once you get stronger.

    Bad Viscerafest is not. It’s a niche kind of deal: one that targets a narrow audience of retro shooter veterans looking for something different, challenging, and unapologetically weird. If you’re willing to embrace its quirks and stomach its many flaws, there’s a satisfying experience buried under all the noise. For most, however, irritation will outweigh the fun. This is an arena shooter-flavoured FPS with heart, but also a whole lot of headaches.
