A lovecraftian boomer shooter where you can play as Daddy Priest or Mommy Reporter. Fantastic art style, dark atmosphere, peak level design and fast-paced gameplay. Cthulhu loves this!
Game's not a bad boomer shooter. OST's good stuff, the setting and level design are pretty well made. The voice lines are a little samey after a while. I very much liked that shooting some enemies in certain spots change the enemy. One major issue I ran into, the game sometimes refused to register right or left clicks. I could never work out why this was happening, but it caused me to take multiple instances of damage that I should not have, and even killed me during one arena fight. A minor grip I have is Journalist's dialogue. The Priest's dialogue and interactions over the beginning to middle of the game reflect the morale dilemma between the situation he is now in and his faith, while also being exposed to the eldritch-esque madness. This changes in the latter half of the game. The Journalist starts off being joyous that she's exploding heads. She is arrogant and full of herself. It struck me as unfitting for the situation. She did not care about any murder she commit. Game's not bad. Just a couple of issues.

Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.14/day in the week to Jul 30 → 1.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Чисто арена шутер + обычные коридоры И тематика Лавкрафта. Что в минусах, так это дизайн уровней, снова эти ключи для дверей, и очень много эффектов, из-за которых не видно врагов. Врагов вообще плохо видно иногда, и лучше бы тут не было механики фонарика - зачем ? И еще магию придумали - да разбавляет геймплей, но когда шутанишь об этой магии вообще забываешь. Прокачка как в сериоус сэм последнем. Опять же спорно, но меняет пушки. Стильно и музыка нормальная, но мне кажется игра слишком длинная и она просто задушит однообразием. как например Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun Вообщем такие шутеры не так далеко и ушли от простенького Wolfenstein 3D ))) За идею и стиль - лайк за геймдизайн - 2/10
Стильная пострелушка! Мне всё понравилось! Насилие никогда не утомляет, особенно, если оно направлено на гуманоидоподобных LOVEкравстовских чудиков!!!
Под конец уровни становятся ненужно лабиринтными и это портит впечатление от игры (ну и в середине ещё эта кукуруза проклятая). Было бы хорошо, не перемудри разрабы с этим моментом. Ну и к некоторым тёмным уровням+коридорам есть вопросы - отлететь от бочки-самоходки из-за угла такое себе удовольствие. Но атмосфера безумия кайф, тут снимаю шляпу - если бы она у меня была конечно же
Cada que rejuego este juego sigue siendo increible, es muy bueno
Looks good, sounds good, doesn't do much wrong. I like the fast pace, the boss fights and the option to quit to desktop after finishing a level. There are a couple bugs that may have you restart a level, but other than that it's alright. 100% achievement completion means beating two playthroughs (one with each character), finding a couple secrets and surviving 20 waves in endless mode. Difficulty is optional. Overall, it's okay.
目前打完了前两关。整体来看，画风很牛逼，但画风之外的游戏性堪称灾难。地图乌漆嘛黑，结果提灯的时候居然不能开枪。剧情文本写得很一般，太多零散的线索很难综合起来。子弹经常匮乏，切枪手感极其糟糕。但是因为很喜欢画风，所以还是推荐了。
Is this the best boomer shooter? No. Is this a noticably passionate attempt to create a good boomer shooter? Hell yes!
There are many games like this, retro, clones, remakes etc, this one goes far above the average, so as many low value products, a must for FPS players who loves something different. This one is well made, something unique and makes a serious and considerable standalone release to old games like Blood and DN3D. You may choose in between 2 characters, a priest what most of players did choose for the first run, so as a reporter lady, if you would decide to do it again on the game+, where countless options and cheats can be selected. So, take your arms and go thru it, it starts harmless but goes to a tough linear way through all sorts of levels with one foe more crazy than the other one, so be on the readiness, as this one is not easy to master in any difficulty above normal. The sounds and graphics are great, requiring lots of resources from the GPU, the effects are stunning and the atmosphere does not leave questions open, as you are shackled into it. There is so much variety and surprises to come, it really males fun to so it once, and perhaps a second time to catch all achievements, along with the hordes levels. 2 complete runs gives you 24 hours fun, so as the variety in perking-up your gear and character, what wisely to be chosen. Get into this crazyness of meeting bizzar things, what you might never have met in other, similar games of this genre. Very recommended for the old school players who look for decent modernity.
