This was the 2nd purchase I made on the Switch. I have played it for several hours. It costed $2.49 on the eShop. While the game is an obvious budget game, the gameplay is fun and challenging. The game doesn't take itself too seriously but is bloody and gruesome. The controls are simple: run, shoot, punch, kick, jump, and the top buttons aim diagonal up or down on the move. Enemies are a little repetitive but it doesn't cheap my thrill for the game; you get all the enemies you kind of expect. The weapons are cool and you get a variety of guns that all too quickly run out of ammo. In the beginning, the game kept me hooked for 30-45minutes at a time but the third level halted my progress over and over and I got tired of playing the first two levels. Unfortunately you only get a few continues before you have to restart the game. This is what ultimately got me tired of playing the game - beating the first two levels over and over used up most of my continues, so I rarely got to inspect level 3. While this probably kept me playing the game longer than if I had simply beat the game with unlimited continues, it also gets old replaying the first 2 levels. I think they should have added a way to get extra men, continues, or a longer life bar. It's hard not to die, and the boss at the end of level 2 took me a while to figure out his pattern. He is the one-eyed guy who is on the cover art. Man, is he a toughie! The game should probably last anyone 3-5 hours and is the kind of game where I wanted to try it another run. After so many replays, though, I got annoyed and stopped playing it. Still I remember the quality of the gameplay. It runs smooth, looks smooth, arcade style gameplay, the controls and buttons are responsive and I ate up the old-style graphics. Good game worth $2.49 in my opinion but not more relative to other games on the Switch. I won't recommend it to everyone but if you watch gameplay footage and it appeals to you, then, I see no reason you wouldn't enjoy the little run and gun, side scrolling shooter. I don't understand Metacritics' 49 score either. It's better game than that. I assume Broforce may be better, can't wait to try it.
