  • The game features a hilarious soundtrack and funny dialogue that captures the essence of redneck culture.
  • It offers nostalgic gameplay reminiscent of classic FPS games from the 90s, providing a unique and engaging experience.
  • The level design includes clever secrets and environmental hazards, making exploration enjoyable despite some navigation challenges.
  • The controls are poorly implemented and difficult to customize, leading to frustrating gameplay experiences.
  • The Steam version lacks the original soundtrack and additional content found in other versions, making it feel incomplete.
  • The level design can be confusing, with keys and objectives often hard to find, which detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game.
  • music
    34 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many praising the excellent and humorous soundtrack, while others criticize its volume, which often drowns out other sounds. Notably, the Steam version lacks the soundtrack entirely, leading users to recommend purchasing the GOG version for a complete experience. Overall, while the music is celebrated for its quality, accessibility issues detract from the enjoyment for some players.

    • “The soundtrack is hilarious.”
    • “And the soundtrack is actually incredible, so much so that I'm looking into finding whatever bands made the songs.”
    • “Buy the GOG version, as it includes both the addons, the latest version of DOSBox, and the soundtrack of course!”
    • “The music is loud!”
    • “Music too loud, drowns out other sounds and talk.”
    • “Unfortunately you can't adjust the volume of the music in these games and thus need to turn the other sound effects up as you will need the other sound effects to hear enemies and your friend and other clues.”
  • humor
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is characterized by its crude, hillbilly-themed antics, including fart jokes and satirical takes on redneck culture, which many players find laugh-out-loud funny. While the humor is subjective and can become repetitive, it is generally appreciated for its silliness and entertaining dialogue, making it a nostalgic favorite for those who enjoy a blend of absurdity and violence. However, some players note that the humor can be hit or miss, with certain aspects becoming dull over time.

    • “Yes, it had crude graphics (even for the time), but it compensated with laugh-out-loud hillbilly humor, farting, belching, getting drunk, eating pork rinds, finding secret rooms, as much as unleashing carnage!”
    • “Positives: it's actually hilarious with how they rip redneck culture apart.”
    • “I definitely recommend this old classic to anyone who likes their silly sense of humor and violence to go with it.”
    • “The humor in the game starts off amusing but quickly becomes dull and annoying; it's alright in the first couple of missions, but after that, it loses its charm.”
  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the nostalgic charm and sharp visuals available in higher resolutions, while others criticize them as crude, repetitive, and outdated, leading to potential nausea. Despite the graphical shortcomings, the game's humor and environmental design are highlighted as compensatory factors. Overall, while the graphics may not meet modern standards, they still evoke a sense of nostalgia for some players.

    • “In 1997, it was a fantastic and fun game with very beautiful and sharp graphics that you could set up to 1600x1200 and more.”
    • “It's worth exploring for the amazingly gorgeous build engine graphics here, especially considering the environmental design in this game was worked on by the same person who worked on Half-Life.”
    • “Both do the trick when it comes to wanting higher resolution, better graphics, visuals, and a stable frame rate.”
    • “The old graphics may cause some nausea though.”
    • “It's graphics are repetitive, totally obsolete, enemies too.”
    • “No full screen, graphics phasing in and out of existence, and the awesome soundtrack is absent.”
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay is a mixed bag, with some players finding it engaging and well-executed, particularly praising the unique concept and risk-reward mechanics. However, many criticize the level design, enemy interactions, and glitches, describing the experience as often tedious and not compelling enough for long-term enjoyment. Overall, it offers moments of fun but is hampered by significant flaws.

    • “This is a risk and reward system, and one of the better implemented mechanics in this game.”
    • “The gameplay is engaging, the level design is well-executed, and the unique concept of combating extraterrestrial rednecks continues to delight players.”
    • “The game is playable and there are redeemable qualities, but the level design, gameplay, enemies, and weapons make it a chore to play.”
    • “Yes, I know the gameplay kind of sucks.”
    • “Gameplay similar to living in Holbrook, Arizona, in real life.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from numerous glitches and unstable gameplay, which detracts from the overall experience. While it may provide some brief entertainment, the lack of stability significantly limits its replay value.

    • “Tons of glitches.”
    • “If you can get past the herky-jerky gameplay and glitches, it's fun for a quick laugh, but there's not enough good content to keep me coming back.”
  • atmosphere
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere of Redneck Rampage is characterized by its unique, old-school 3D design and challenging gameplay, which some players find appealing. However, the high difficulty level of enemies and certain levels can detract from the overall enjoyment, suggesting that improvements could enhance the game's atmosphere further.

    • “Redneck Rampage is an old school 3D action Doom-like game with an original atmosphere, unique locations, and exceptional difficulty. I like it a lot!”
    • “These elements are not present... If there ever is a makeover like what happened with Shadow Warrior, these two aspects might be fun to explore as they add to the atmosphere.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story starts off engaging but quickly loses its charm, becoming repetitive and unfunny as it attempts to weave together various rumors and absurd elements, such as an alien abduction of a pig. Overall, the narrative struggles to maintain interest beyond the initial missions.

    • “I take every rumor and one person someone may have known or some story and build a world filled with all of them at once. Add in alien abduction of a pig (think Nicolas Cage's character in that movie that came out recently) and this game is that.”
    • “The story feels like a jumbled collection of random rumors and anecdotes, lacking any coherent narrative or depth.”
    • “It seems like the developers threw in every bizarre idea they could think of, including alien abductions, without any real connection to the main plot.”
    • “The narrative is so disjointed that it feels more like a series of unrelated events rather than a cohesive story.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The Steam version of the game lacks proper optimization and configuration, leading to performance issues that require players to seek external guidance for acceptable gameplay. Despite its status as a landmark title for fans of the Build engine, the release's technical shortcomings detract from the overall experience.

    • “The original game is a landmark and a must-play for gamers interested in the Build engine, but the Steam version was released without proper optimization and configuration of DOSBox. I had to gather information from other Steam users to achieve acceptable performance.”
    • “The original game is a landmark and a must-play for gamers interested in the Build engine, but the Steam version was released without proper optimization and configuration of DOSBox. I had to gather information from other Steam users to achieve 'acceptable' performance.”
