REAPER

REAPER is a 3D retro billboarded "boomer shooter" where you take on the role of the Grim Reaper, who, you would think, would be fairly capable of handling a few peasants, but no, you get your butt kicked by them. On the upside, the game does feature customisable controls and resolution, so at least some of the basic, minimum requirements have been met. Unfortunately there's a number of other technical defects and shortcomings which contribute to the game being difficult to recommend to gamers. As a boomer shooter, this is basically a ripoff/reskin of Wolfenstein 3D (really, the game engine provided by the 3D Game Studio construction kit the developer used is closer to Rise of the Triad), the engine works well enough. The problem is largely with the gameplay... as a boomer "shooter", this lacks, well, shooting, relying much more strongly on melee weapons, and thus the level design, while generally adequate, lacks enough pickups and so on, so instead of a fun, over the top shooter experience, it's a miserable drag. The game and the melee focus becomes incredibly repetitive, so while the game is polished well enough (it's not hard to polish retro pixelcrap textures and billboard sprite enemies), the game design itself falls flat. There's also some bugs and issues... like you can get stuck in places, and in some places jump on top of the walls for the 2D "maze" levels in some places and just run around on top of the world where you've obviously not supposed to be able to go. That's not like abusing a hard to find glitch or exploit, you can just jump up on top of the map in places. That's a little sloppy in terms of design/implementation. The poor quality of this game is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was [b]only 5 players[/b]. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 130 million gamers on Steam and well over 140,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected. So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 140,000+ games on Steam? REAPER is relatively cheap at $3 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, this is impossible to recommend. This is also competing with over 14,000 free games available on Steam, many of them far better than this paid product. You'd be far better off playing a remastered original. [quote][b][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/profile]Profile Features Limited![/url][/b] Valve have marked this game as "Profile Features Limited" at the time of this review. This is usually caused by poor sales figures and low community acceptance for the game (to date). Until this status changes, this game will not give you +1 to your Game Collector badge count, appear in profile achievements or any other Steam meta-accomplishments, nor can it be displayed in some profile showcases. If these factors are important to you, it may be worth holding off before buying this game.[/quote]

A step-up from previous DOSMan games. Has some bugs but it is a pleasant experience

A short simple fps in the style of Hexen. Sometimes that's all you want, just a fun time to distract yourself with.

Прикольная игра в стиле Doom под пиво. Сюжет простой : Вы Смерть! Собираете ключи Забираете души Побеждаете боссов

Fun little Dosman Game. Action is good and the enemies and there voice lines are pretty good aswell. Level design is not the strongest of the Dosman Games. Overall a good game and could be worth a sequel since there is potential.

Plays terrible. Very few health pickups and ammo even on easy. Mostly had to use my scythe on the first two levels, saving ammo for archers. The scythe has terrible hit detection. Once you get into a flow it's fun but the limited resources immediately pulls me out. Stopped playing after 30 mins.
