Advantages: good fun
Disadvantages: none really
This game is set in an alternative universe with a different time line to our own. The basic premise is that America has been invade by Nazi Germany and I the protagonist are a member of the resistance against the Nazi Occupation.
It is a first person shoot 'em up much the same as any other. However it is quite entertaining and silly good fun if you like to shoot things up.
Now let's talk weapons. There is a large variety to choose from, both historically accurate for the era such as a Thompson submachine gun and Winchester 45 on the American side, but when you kill a German I can take his weapon and. These are a variety of weapons that the German's were either planning to build in real life but never got to due to the ending of the war, fantasy pieces that never existed on paper or real life. It is are these weapons that bring the most interest to the game.
Game play is quite smooth once mastered, the controllers are similar to other shoot them up games. Three are only 3 minor gripes:
-When climbing a ladder or hanging on a edge to cross to another place the camera angle changes which can be infuriating
-there is no save function. You play is automatically saved at checkpoints. This can be really annoying if you get a hard part and keep getting killed and get sent back to the beginning of that section.
- there are scattered through out the game items which you have to climb to continue to the next playing area but they do not stand out much. But they are confusing because you don't see them until you are up near them.
Overall is a nice little game and is a cheap away to while away the hours. I think is worth it because it only cost me £4.95 second hand, absolute bargain fun, soldier!
Summary: good game
