  • gameplay10 mentions

    The gameplay is characterized by a straightforward loop focused on kicking and dodging to complete challenge levels, with minimal variation in objectives. While it offers a simple and fun experience, particularly for fans of the Serious Sam series, the lack of depth and repetitive soundtrack may leave players wanting more engaging content. Overall, it provides a basic challenge but is considered less enjoyable compared to other available games.

    • “The gameplay, then, is balancing out kicking and dodging to survive the level and hopefully complete the bonus objective, which is usually smashing barriers or juggling bombs or the like.”
    • “The gameplay loop is simple enough, but can offer a real challenge with its bonus objectives.”
    • “A simple, fun clicker game with a cool mechanic that ties neatly into the Serious Sam universe.”
    • “No story or anything, just a series of challenge levels with a handful of gameplay and aesthetic rewards.”
    • “There is no difference in the gameplay no matter what the objective is.”
    • “It won't take much longer to get 100% completion, since all the achievements you'll get just by playing the game, while optional objectives don't add much gameplay either.”
  • graphics7 mentions

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the fine visuals and child-like art style, especially given the low price.

Overall, while the aesthetic is appealing, technical issues and randomness in gameplay impact the enjoyment.

    • “About 40 levels with fine graphics and no issues to be found.”
    • “For the incredibly cheap price, it's absolutely well worth a buy if you're itching for some simple runner action with an appealing, almost child-like art style.”
    • “The game offers some nice graphics; although there are some ugly glitches here and there, it is pleasant all the same.”
    • “The graphics are annoying and the runs are way too random and inconsistent to be enjoyable.”
    • “The graphics are kind of janky but supposedly this is a port of an older mobile game.”
    • “No story or anything, just a series of challenge levels with a handful of gameplay and aesthetic rewards.”
  • music5 mentions

    The music in "Serious Sam: The First Encounter" is primarily centered around the soundtrack from the final level, which some players find repetitive, as it is the only music featured during gameplay. However, fans of the series appreciate the nostalgic value of the familiar soundtrack, often considering it one of the best aspects of the game. Overall, while the limited variety may be a drawback for some, it resonates well with dedicated fans.

    • “It also has the best soundtrack from Serious Sam: The First Encounter, so there's that.”
    • “If I complained about anything, you better like the soundtrack from the final level of Serious Sam: The First Encounter because that is the only music you will hear during gameplay, lol.”
    • “But fans of Sam buy this game anyway - familiar heroes and familiar music and.... hearts of fans of Sam are already pounding like a jackhammer =)”

    • “Not really much to say here other than it's a short and simple little runner game that is great fun as an afternoon distraction since it's beatable in 1-2 hours, though it does have plenty of replayability in trying to get those perfect scores, unlocks, and to test your reflexes in the endless modes.”
