Interesting mechanics, but unplayable

* The saving system does not work: while you have frequent checkpoints throughout the game, once you quit, all the progress will be lost forcing you to start from scratch on next game launch. You will just replay the same first 'chapter' until you get bored and remove this piece of game forever. * The graphics is also quite buggy: glitches, blinking, sometimes the while screen become black (it's best combined with the saving system bug noted above). Telling in advance: no, my graphics card is all right. This thing should not be purchased, at least, not until developers fix it. One extra star for an interesting graphics design, but programmers has ruined it completely.

Broken, crashes on main menu.

Game absolutely refuses to get past the main menu without freezing then crashing. Waste of money.

Good Luck with your gun

One thing ruin this game from being playable, and that is the chances you have vs. computer in gunfights. You will dying a lot since the computer can pind you down easily from distances where you chance would be 5-10%, while you can´t hit them with a chance of 70% - 80% and even 90 %. Maybe it´s just my bad luck, but after 2 frustrating hours i quitted, and removed the game.

No Sir I dont like it

I don't know what to think about this game there are some things that just piss me off about it and yet I can't stop playing it the turned based combat is addictive and the more the enemies kill you the more you want to get back into the game and get revenge.

Seems to be nice game, but with bugs

I installed it on Linux, but I can't play it because some texts are just not visible. I can't see controls in menu too (for example in video settings). My environment: Linux 4.3.3 (Arch Linux), Intel integrated videocard
