Spent 45hrs on this and that was way too long. Think of it as an Elder Scrolls lite, with a lot of the systems still in their infancy. After 10-20hrs, once you've seen most of what the game has to offer, do yourself a favour and watch a playthrough and skip to the intresting bits.
Once you get it running, it's a fun adventure game with shooting and close combat setions. Now, you need to understand that this game is janky a.f. If you can stand this and don't mind consulting a walkthrough occasionally, you'll have good time. Shooting sections are atrocious though. Install dgvoodoo and start the .exe directly from the game folder. Changed .exe compatibility to win7, run as admin, disable full screen opt. I also ran fraps to check the fps ran at 60. On Win11. This worked for me with ctd on alt-tab only. Sometimes froze for a few seconds after loading a save game and transitioning between indoors/outdoors. Enjoy!
I thoroughly enjoyed my time with this game. Well written, funny, good logic, excellent voice acting and nice pixel art (if you like that). Great stuff. Bravo!
Slow combat with the worlds shortest range guns and limited angle aiming. No overwatch, seriously limited ammo, nerfed weapons. This game hates you. I never played it back in the day, but there are many better Turn Based Strategy games out there. Technically, it ran absolutely fine with no crashes for me on Win 11.
Run 'n' gun around Milan. A bit of cover shooting, some chase scenes and alot of clicking. I had no problem with the controls on mouse and keyboard. I enjoyed the ride. Probably won't do it on hard though.
Great fun, good story. Liked the first person perspective. On 64 bit systems the save function may not work properly. As of writing, there is a fix online that updates the .exe so you can save.
Crazy WW1 Story that has good action from early to mid-game, but outwore it's welcome for the final few levels. By this point you want the game to finish as it's just wave after wave of bad guys and you've already killed several thousand. I bought it on sale for less than a £1 and definately got my moneys worth.
Looks nice enough, I liked the combat generally. The movement is slow, the levelling system is complicated and unexplained, and the journal sometimes doesn't give enough information regarding locations. There is a lot of potential here, but it doesn't quite come together. You can get a speed mod which makes the game more tolerable, but it wasn't enough to save it.
A travel novella. It has a certain charm about it at first, unfortunately a lack of media (sights, sounds, video etc.) makes this a rather sedate affair. The story isn't a thrill a minute, I couldn't finish a playthrough, and shan't be returning.
Never played before, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Install modern controls mod and enjoy.
