    Just replay Hotline Miami. This game plays like a Great Value version of that anyway. The only issue is they devs forgot to make it fluid, fun, or even interesting. It has that lazy barebones feeling that other indies such as Skater XL also have. Not worth any amount of money, maybe worth looking at if you find it on a subscription service but at the end of the day, it's just not fun.

    Unless you played Hotline Miami and wished it featured more people shooting you dead from offscreen where you couldn’t even see them, you’re better off passing on The Hong Kong Massacre, because style is really all this game has to offer.

    At a first glance The Hong Kong Massacre appears to be nothing more than a Hotline Miami clone. However, beneath its samey exterior the game differentiates itself with some quirky mechanics that make it a real blast to play. [Issue#160, p.89]

    Hong Kong Massacre is a competent and well-presented twin stick John Woo 'em up but is hamstrung by a lack of variety and some frustrating gameplay elements.
