The gameplay features a simple wave-based shooting mechanic with unique elements like shooting an orb to slow time, offering an arcade-style experience. However, the reload system is confusing, involving dropping and swapping weapons that don't always reload as expected despite audio cues. Overall, the gameplay is straightforward but may struggle with clarity in its reload mechanics.
“Time Carnage has some unique mechanics, such as shooting an orb in the distance to slow time, providing a simple arcade gameplay experience.”
“The gameplay focuses on zombie missions with waves 4 and 5.”
“Confusing reload mechanic: dropping your alternate weapon automatically reloads it with a sound cue indicating successful reload; yet swapping back still didn't always have the weapon reloaded.”
“Simple wave mechanic.”
“Gameplay consists mostly of zombie mission waves 4 and 5.”
Time Carnage (Nintendo Switch)
Time Carnage is a decent enough arcade shooting game, but you can tell it wasn’t designed for the Switch.
65%Time Carnage Review
Time Carnage harks back to the good old days of heading down to the arcade to play House of the Dead or Virtua Cop, where you'd drop a couple of coins into a virtual shooting gallery and kill zombies all evening. While this indie shooter lacks the reliable precision of those light gun classics, it at least offers an enjoyable FPS alternative amid Switch’s growing selection. Unfortunately, it’s not the best VR port we’ve seen, and its own brand of ultraviolent silliness soon loses its appeal.
