Grab and Smash
Very simplistic but quite engaging game about gorilla on the run. Gameplay is barebones but works well if you like Hotline Miami style fast-paced mayhem. It's only couple hours long, which is probably good thing because it ends before becoming tiresome, yet still it does what it can to keep things reasonably fresh, mainly by introducing new enemy types and unique flavors to some levels (like darkness, snipers outside or falling bombs). Although gorilla has only two moves: smashing and grabbing, it allows for some degree of more sophisticated tactics because grabbed enemies can be used as shields, throwable missiles (some of them will even explode) as well as they briefly fire their weapon forward after being grabbed. Might be frustrating at times (mostly due to random nature of levels) but for me dying was motivating to try again rather than rage quit which is good thing. I think it's easier and more forgiving than Hotline Miami but for those wanting bigger challenge there are unlockable Hard and Arcade modes. With regard to audio-visuals Ape Out is very artistically driven and seamlessly uses it's style to achieve clever effects. Graphical presentation is simple but very stylish and mostly clearly readable (only in certain levels I had some troubles with seeing things). I also like how despite top down perspective game emulates gorilla's actual field of view. Soundtrack contains only drum kit and has this gimmick of dynamically reacting when our gorilla is going apeshit. When watching gameplay video I thought it will be annoying but while playing myself didn't bother me at all and worked well with flow of the game, adding even more punch to destroying opponents. Overall it kinda reminds me of those higher quality Flash games you would play on the Internet around 2005. Worth buying with hefty discount.
