    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game is characterized by its "boomer shooter" style, reminiscent of classic titles like Wolfenstein and Doom, featuring a solid arsenal of weapons and strategic mechanics due to limited health and no regeneration. However, some players criticize the lack of engaging elements such as achievements and a coherent story, which detracts from the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, the game offers a thrilling and intense atmosphere with a variety of levels and bosses to challenge players.

    • “This high-stakes gameplay, combined with a satisfying arsenal of weapons and a variety of gruesome enemies, creates a thrilling and intense experience.”
    • “There are multiple different weapons, various levels, and plenty of bosses to fight. This game is a significant step up from 'Concrete Visions' (the devs' previous game) in terms of graphics, gameplay, and overall flow.”
    • “There is zero dopamine to be gained here; no achievements, no satisfying gameplay, no story (except for this ghost who tries talking to me, which I can't hear her anyway due to the hushed sound file, so I don't even know why I'm there or what I'm supposed to be doing - and there is no 'subtitles' option so I can't even read it).”
    • “The game's core mechanic of limited health and no regeneration forces players to be strategic in their approach.”
    • “For starters, I will be slightly biased, as I am one of the voice actors for this game, but Reaper allows you to relive those early days of first-person shooters with its classic arcade Wolfenstein/Doom style gameplay.”

    • “With its pixelated graphics and brutal combat.”
    • “What stands out the most to me is the quality of the pixel-art graphics.”
    • “There are multiple different weapons, various levels, and plenty of bosses to fight, this game is a significant step up from 'Concrete Visions' (the devs' previous game) in terms of graphics, gameplay, and overall flow.”

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is criticized for being unclear and unengaging, with players unable to understand the narrative due to poor audio quality and the absence of subtitles. The lack of meaningful achievements or satisfying gameplay further detracts from any potential storytelling experience.

    • “There is zero dopamine to be gained here; no achievements, no satisfying gameplay, no story (except for this ghost who tries talking to me, which I can't hear her anyway due to the hushed sound file, so I don't even know why I'm there or what I'm supposed to be doing - and there is no 'subtitles' option so I can't even read it).”
