XCOM 2: War of the Chosen: Epic new units!

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

We know a lot about XCOM 2: War of the Chosen. What’s really interesting is the whole new units coming to the action on both the enemies side and our side. So lets check them out because they really are something to be excited about.

On the side of the Chosen:

The Assassin is a stealth based unit who is a master of the katana and prefers close range combat. The assassin is prideful and see humanity as below her. It is said that she has unmatched skills in combat. She can kidnap your soldiers which if any has played XCOM 2 knows that is a huge problem. She can get stronger over the campaign and if you aren’t careful sabotage the Avenger (your ship). She can even taunt you. She’s got character hasn’t she. She can vanish from sight and stun/disorientate groups of soldiers with ‘Harbor wave from a distance. The Assassin will gain your instant attention. Remember that she will pretty much rush you down and put her trusty Katana to work.

The Warlock has been described as the most arrogant and said to have gotten too much from the psionic well of power also making him mentally unstable. This doesn’t sound good at all. He even goes so far to believe that he is a god and greater than the elders that made him. He is normally armed with an assault rifle but  he uses a wide range of psionic powers on the battlefield. He can afllict enemy soldiers with madness which leads to a variety of status effects. He can summon back up who can use strong melee attacks, while these guys are out he is invulnerable to harm (OP much?). Can teleport his troops around the field and can even rise up zombies who can explode. I already hate the Warlock.

The Hunter has a very different style. The Hunter is a unit who fights from a distance and stalks it’s prey, even from across the map. The Hunter just loves to disable and wound enemy soldiers then when the time is right, deliver the final blow. The more XCOM soldiers dies, the more cocky and confident the Hunter gets, which can lead to it making mistakes. The Hunter has a grappling hook to get to certain places. A tracking shot which let’s it know where that tracked enemy is at all times. They have concussion grenades and tranquilizer shots. He can also like the others, capture your soldiers to interrogate them and get sensitive information out of them like the location of your ship. Just remember that when you see the laser sighting beam, get out of the way.

On the side of the resistance

The Reapers normally kept to themselves and live on the fringes of socity, sort of like outcasts. They have battling the ADVENT for years. They are now willing to work with XCOM to take on the alien enemies. Reapers troops are more stealth and infiltration units, mainly because of their ‘shadow’ mode ability. This mode grants them concealment and has greater mobility options that a normal XCOM troop. Each action you take like moving, throwing something or firing has a chance of keeping the concealment but you get to see the chances of your action keeping concealment before making them. The reapers have a Vektor rifle and incendiary claymore explosive which can be attached to even a live enemy.

The Templars are a monastic lot of soldiers who are all about pushing their minds and bodies with psionic energy to the maximum limit. Sounds exciting but dangerous. The Templars are lead by one of the original psionic soldiers, “Geist”. They hid away after the fall of the XCOM project. They experimented on themselves and even developed weapons that use their psionic powers. They have psionic blades, their abilities are triggered through the use of Focus which builds up over the course of combat. They can boost their own damage and mobility. So what will you use your Focus for? Unleash power psionic abilities or boost combat effectiveness.

The skirmishers are all former ADVENT soldiers who have decided to go against their former leaders. The Skirmisher is all about offense. They can kill anything regardless of what’s going on. They have grapple hooks that not only allow for greater mobility but can use it to fly towards enemies or pull them towards him. Once close Skirmishers can use their wrist-mounted ripjack to deliver a real stab. They certainly love their bullpup SMG which when trained with can attack twice with it. They are capable of learning how to take extra actions without ending their turn like ‘Reflex’ which grants extra actions for each enemy that fired at the Skirmisher. Skirmisher is all about the damage.

As you can see, XCOM 2 is bringing a bunch of new things. The units of the chosen and the units of the resistance are very exciting. We at X35 Earthwalker are looking forward to the release of XCOM 2: War of the Chosen.

Hunt: Showdown. Gamers aren’t ready for this hunt

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Hunt: Showdown is a new first person monster hunter game, developed by ‘Crytek’. We believe it is coming out on Xbox One, PC and PS4 but not comfirmed. There isn’t a release date just yet either. We can confirm that this game will be awesome.

You are a hunter. Not the normal types that shoot deer and pigeons. Players are a part of something called the American hunters association. This association has been around for many years and have been having big operations but not know by people. They stay silent. This association makes it clear that they aren’t responsible if you die. They have said tat you will die but state that “without risk, there can be no reward”. We at X35 Earthwalker don’t agree with that. In the American hunters association there are many hunters and not all of them are friendly. If you get in the way of some, they may end up killing you instead. So remember that. These hunters fight evil beings that dwell in the wilds. The association are the ones who keep the “world freed from monstrous, mindless cannibalistic beings; free from those empty, corrupted shells once human now looking only to fill that rotting vessel with your flesh”.

Now when you check this game out, it will most likely in some ways remind you of Evolve. Simply because you are hunters going to hunt down and kill monsters who have overrun the world. Kill them and collect the bounty. Your character isn’t alone. He has a partner and they must track and kill the monsters together because alone is suicide. The monsters aren’t docile creatures who only bother you if you bother them. They want to gorge themselves on your flesh and apparently devour your soul (somehow). We at X35 Earthwalker are fine because our souls are in the hands of Jesus. Now this game has placed some emphasis on punishing mistakes. Making one mistake can cost you everything. This includes your life, bounty and equipment so don’t just rush in heads first. Come up with a plan and work with your partner or as the game states, end up in hell.

 So what will Hunters use to defeat these creatures? Each hunter can carry one double handed weapon, one single handed weapon, three tools and three consumables. What is equipped is left completely up to the players. The Sparks LRR is a powerful big game rifle which does heavy damage and even at long distances but it has one shot and has quite the reload time so pick your shots carefully and don’t miss. The Cadwell rival 78 handcannon is basically the sawed of shotgun from Gears of war 3 (it’s back, you sawed of haters). It’s wide spread let’s you rip things apart at close range. The Electric lamp, as a lamp allows you to see things much better and light up areas but it also means everyone else can see you like someone with a rifle from far away. Maybe you can use it to lyre things to you for an ambush. We said Maybe. First aid kit is self explanatory. Get hurt, use it to heal. It heals one health bar though. Fire bomb aka molotov cocktail is there for one purpose. Set things on fire and watch them burn alive. Mean but when you are up against monsters, it’s neccessary. The barbed bomb is a grenade that has spikes on it which allows it to be lodged into a surface or flesh of something and then explode. Sticky bomb ladies and gentlemen. There’s also a tool that function as both a wirecutter and hammer. It can also be modified like with a integrated lo pick for more features and uses. This is only a portion of the full range of weapons, equipments and more like a crossbow, chain pistol etc.

The monsters themselves are being kept mostly hidden but there is some information on them. They are terrifying and merciless but not as bad as titans from ‘Attack on titans’. The ‘Meathead’ is a large bloated humanoid creature who is headless by the way and has leeches for hair. It already sounds horrifying. He is seen carrying a blade so it will chase you down and slice you up. Another one is called ‘The Hive’. The hive comes alive only when a insect spirit possesses a person, turning their bodies into The Hive itself. Not much is known about this thing but now spirits are involved. So what good are guns against spirits? There are other monsters, rumour has it that they are worse. They have been kept totally secret. One looks like a giant spider while another looks sort of like a Ing from Metroid prime 2. All we know is that all these monsters will be a problem.

We checked out some gameplay and everything looks real good right now. The environment looks like a proper dangerous, dark, abandoned area. The sky looks quite realistic. The graphics are very good. Very good indeed. There are other smaller monsters in the levels as well. The ones we saw were zombie like enemies. Some actually looked like zombie scarecrows.  There is some stealth in this game like sneaking around into better positions before taking shots. The Meathead monster from what we saw looked disappointing but it’s not the finished edition though so will give it a chance. 

Overall Hunt: Showdown looks very good right now. We hope they make the dark levels more scary. The official gameplay made the game look easy but we’ll have to see. The graphics, sounds and environments are all very good. The story is quite interesting. This game is definitely worth checking out.

XCOM 2: War of the Chosen. Epic DLC coming soon

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

XCOM 2 is the greatest turn based strategy game, we at X35 Earthwalker, have ever played. The amount of options you have to deal with a situation, the different amount of enemies and the problems they bring, the different weapons and equipment that you have to buy and equip wisely is just deep and done very well. Off course XCOM 2 wasn’t perfect but man was it very good.

Good news for all XCOM fans. A new DLC is coming out and it’s a large one. Almost like a whole game. It’s called XCOM 2: War of the Chosen. It will come out 29th of August for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. This DLC adds whole new content to the game. The fight against the advent continues so new factions of the resistance form together to take down the enemy. That’s right we have whole new allies and units to back us up; however a new enemy called the ‘Chosen’ show up and they have one goal in mind: recapture the commander. So XCOM 2: War of the Chosen has new hero classes, new enemies, new environments, new missions and gives the strategic level of XCOM 2 another layer. 

The Chosen are the most smart and dangerous enemy we have ever faced. They are sent by the elders to carry out this recapture mission. They are well organised and got different units to give them every advantage they can get. The three units that have been revealed are Assassins, Warlocks and Hunter.

The resistance factions bring new things for us. These new factions have their own background and story behind them. They all look clearly different from each other and have completely different abilities and strengths. The three new factions that have been revealed are Reaper, Skirmisher and Templar.

If having to face the Chosen wasn’t bad enough we also have whole new enemies who are more than willing to take us on. We haven’t been given much information on the new enemies but we do know their names. There is the Priest, Purifier, Spectre and ‘The Lost’. They also look real cool and very distinguishable from each other.

There are whole new environments in this DLC as well. Expect to have tactical battles in such environments like xenoformed wilderness regions, cities abandoned because they were destroyed by aliens bio weapons and even underground tunnels. Hope you guys aren’t scared of the dark.

There is much more, we learnt that even your scientists and engineers can get involved in the action. They can be deployed on covert missions that if they complete successfully, will reward you with supplies and boost faction favour. Your soldiers interact with each other to some extent. The website explains that your “soldiers can develop bonds with compatible teammates for new abilities and perks.”  You can even create and design your own resistance posters that you can share with your friend in-game. 

Overall this DLC looks amazing right now. It is deep and rich with content. It’s bringing whole new environments, enemies and resistance units shaking up the game to some extent. This is a whole new campaign as well with new strategic layers. We will reveal more concerning the units in another blog. This DLC is definitely worth checking out. You may not like the Chosen but you will like… the ‘Earth Walk!’.

Batman: The Enemy Within. Season 2 soon here

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Season 2 for Batman Tell tales series, Batman: The Enemy Within, developed by ‘Telltale Games’, is coming out 8th of August for Xbox One, PS4, PC and Mac.

Lots of people really enjoyed the Batman Telltale series. We have to admit, it was a lot of fun and the switched up story line worked well. Tell Tale always seem to make good games but our favourite is definitely Batman. 

From what we know, the Riddler is back in town. The Riddler has returned to Gotham city and he as always has his puzzles with him. There’s more… A ruthless federal agent is on the scene and the Joker himself has begun to make some moves. This just opens up a lot of ideas in the heads of players. We all know the Joker. We all know what he is capable of. How will he fit into all this? What exact role will he take?

In terms of how this telltale will come out, the official website says, “The Telltale Series is a five-part episodic series. This Season Pass contains episode one and access to download the four remaining episodes as they become available.” Off course you can just wait for the game to release and just buy it. As always, we at X35 Earthwalker always encourage gamers to do their research first before buying any ‘Season passes’. So many people buy it without fully understanding what will be included in the season like does it provide early access, does it give free cosmetic skins or free downloadable maps etc. So please find out first and don’t be a complainer.

The main themes that seem to be repeated here in Batman: The Enemy Within seems to be based around trust and allies. It goes on about who you will ally yourself with, who will you trust and how far will players allow Bruce to descend into darkness. This makes us believe that this is probably how the Joker fits in. It may be one of those can you trust Joker or not kind of thing (we don’t). We do know that this is supposed to be superior to the previous season.

Overall this game looks promising and real good. The graphics are the same style as the prequel but slightly improved from what we have seen. If you are a fan of telltale games or batman then this game should entertain you indeed. The developers ‘Telltale Games’ did a great job with this game. This is definitely worth checking out. Batman may be Batman but the ‘Earth walk’ is… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Gigantic. Large battles coming to us soon

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Gigantic is a new MOBA game developed by ‘Motiga’ and coming out 20th of July for Xbox One and Windows 10. 

Now this game will remind some gamers of Paladin and Overwatch. We can confirm that it isn’t exactly the same though. This third person shooter game is all 5v5 pvp action. Meaning that players have to think fast, act fast and be bold about it. 

So straight away we should know what to expect from this game except Gigantic has something else… Something big… Something gigantic (see what we did there?). Your team must power up, defeat the enemies and control the map to unleash your guardian. The guardian is basically that gigantic thing. These large creatures will rule the field and trash everything so make sure to have your guardian first. X35 Earthwalker, What happens if both teams unleash their guardians? Well that’s simple. An gigantic epic clash of gigantic monsters. 

Your team will have creatures which will help you control the map and gather power. These creatures are worth summoning and protecting. Simply because you can upgrade them making them tougher and more of a pain for your enemies to deal with. Gigantic is a fast and fluid strategic hero shooter. The key word is ‘strategic’.

Now there are a range of heroes to choose from. There is said to be 18 heroes. Each hero is very different from each other in looks and role. The many characters are said to cover every major type of gameplay there is. That’s a big statement. Heroes like ‘The Margrave’, a tank, who replaced the arm he lost with the arm of a demon. ‘Imani’, a shooter, who is said to wreck anyone who enters her sights. ‘Wu’ a fighter, everyone of his limbs including his tongue is dangerous. Mozu, a caster, who has a range of spells and can teleport. Many more heroes to check out and test for yourself.

Overall this does seem like a cool game. We checked out some gameplay but it was a beta so the real thing will be much better. The graphics were nice and colourful. Gigantic had really cool environments like the clouds, the maps that you battle on. The sounds could be better and should be for the real release. The action was indeed fast and quite a bit to do. The gigantic guardians are epic though but we hope that they do more on the battlefield though. This game might be worth checking out. Gigantic has powerful guardians but X35 Earthwalker has… the ‘Earth Walk’!

Tacoma. Sci-fi adventure coming soon

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Tacoma is a new Sci-fi narrative adventure game developed by ‘Fullbright’ and coming out August the 2nd on Xbox One and PC. Yes you can get it through Steam.

We are normally not a fan of these types of games but we like to give all games a chance. At least check it out and see what’s up. Tacoma is set aboard a high tech space station. The year is 2088. So not close to Halo but ahead of us now. It seems like the character that players control might be a detective because it says that you’ll explore every detail of how the crew, aboard the station, lived. Looking for and finding clues which reveal quite a big story. A story of fear, trust in midst of a disaster. By the way Tacoma is the name of the station. At the heart of Tacoma is a digital surveillance system, which has lots 3D recordings of the crews life on Tacoma. Important moments so make sure to check them out. These recordings won’t leave you alone. As you explore and look around they will echo around you. 

This game therefore requires players to focus and have attention to detail. What if you miss something? Somehow we have the ability to move, rewind and fast forward through these recorded scenes to get different angles and take a good look. Such is the life of an interactive investigator. The story will be told through multiple “fully voiced and animated interactive AR scenes”. There are 6 members aboard Tacoma. They interact like normal people. Building relationships, love and dealing with crisis together. The developers make it clear that it’s not just about what happened to the people here. Like it goes deeper than that. In the different sections of the station you’ll get to see digital representations of the crew members going along their own parallel story threads that will go one way, connect with another thread or diverge etc.

So go ahead and interact with certain objects to find what you are looking for. Open drawers, listen to records of the crews digital communications and even their personal thoughts. Unlock doors and get right in. You will have to explore Tacoma both Digitally and physically, that’s if you want to discover the story and get the full details. Leave no stone unturned. Life in the year 2088 seems quite interesting. Humanity has expanded their reach, resulting in low-Earth orbit and apparently beyond. It has been stated that the game will take around 2 to 5 hours to complete but honestly that is up to the player. By the way you don’t have to worry about Necromorphs from Dead space as there is no combat in Tacoma.

Overall this game looks good. The graphics are very nice and the sounds like the ambiance works well with the atmosphere. The environment and Tacoma, the station it’s self, is nice to look at. From gameplay that we checked out, it’s exactly what we thought. Basically a detective, move around, be in the room, listen to their words, watch their actions, hear their thoughts etc.  This game is only for certain types of gamers. Now it isn’t our type of game but it’s a good game. This might be worth checking out. Investigations can be fun but nothing is as fun… as the ‘Earth Walk!’

Aven Colony. Sci-fi city building coming soon

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Aven Colony is a new sci-fi city-building strategy game developed by ‘Mothership Entertainment LLC’. Aven Colony is coming out 25th of July for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. This game looks interesting.

The story is very simple in Aven Colony. The player must build a new home for humanity. Where are we? We believe the world is called Aven prime. This world is a super dangerous hazard place as it has: shard storms, low oxygen atmosphere, dust devils, toxic gas eruptions and extreme electrical storms and apparently this isn’t everything. Sounds very suitable for humanity to stay. This entire world has different biomes as well. There are arctic areas, wetlands and deserts as well. The Sandy Gulch is actually a snowy arctic area. This does make sense as an area that gets very little rain or snow with grounds that can’t grow plants is a desert. Vanaar which does look like a nice jungle-y green area which we wouldn’t mind taking a holiday to but the weather in Aven prime is fatal.  So exploration is definitely a huge part of this game.

In the world of Aven Colony you are the new colony governor and you must supervise your colonists. If you do very well, you will move up in rank (even though you are in charge). You can reach the rank of Expedition president. This can be done by providing your colonists with health care, police order, entertainment, good food and creating nice jobs. You can hold elections, that’s if you feel confident that the colonists still want you in charge. Players can even set social policies to influence the behavior of the colony.

Aven Prime have many secrets, we heard. The single player campaign will reveal some of the many secrets. Some, not all. This means that players must “split up and look for clues” and do some hunting for secrets. Whats also great is that there is a sandbox mode where you can customise any mission. So have fun with that. If you haven’t figured it out yet, building is the main thing of this game. For humanity to survive you will need to build structure for growing food, manage air quality, convert resources, houses for people, store resources, mine ores, research house your colonists, grow food, store resources, manage air quality, mine ore, convert resources, perform research and manufacturing and much more. You can upgrade all your infrastructures.

Also, humanity isn’t alone here. Apparently you guys have neighbours. There are aliens here. Notice that we said aliens and not alien. There are several alien life forms here. Like deadly plague spores and giant sand worms. Don’t we all love giant sand worms? There is something worse though. Apparently there is a vicious fungal infection known as “The Creep”. The creep sounds very interesting though, like is it intelligent also and plotting the downfall of humanity trying to live here?

We checked out some gameplay and we can straight up say that this looks like a well done game. The graphics are great, no info concerning the sounds though. The designs of the buildings, vents etc all look good. The environments look fantastic. They certainly look alive, especially the jungle looking area. The weather changes as the days go on so adjusting and surviving is crucial. The wildlife looks great. We saw some very cool bird creatures and their flying animation is done very well, moving almost like real birds. Oh and the sand worm looks real intimidating. Imagine seeing that outside your window.

Overall this looks like an impressive game. Those who like building simulations and management then this will be for you. It’s quite deep and looks great. The aliens are a nice twist. The developers ‘Mothership Entertainment LLC’ did an excellent job with this game. This game is worth checking out. We really like what they did with this game but what we like even more is… The ‘Earth Walk!’

Moon Hunter. Yep, it’s about the moon

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Moon Hunters is an adventure RPG, developed by ‘Kitfox Games’ and is already out on PC and PS4 but will be released on Xbox One July 19th. We have never heard of this game until recently but finding information on Moon Hunters is actually easy. This is another great example of how to display information for gamers in a easy way.

On the Moon Hunter official website it says, “Moon Hunters is a myth-weaving adventure for 1-4 players, solving ancient mysteries and building mythologies. Explore a hand-painted pixel art world that’s randomly generated yet rich with legends, non-linear stories, and secrets. How will you be remembered?” This sounds like ancient, fantasy world filled with mythological things and creatures. In the world of Moon Hunter, the moon is the source of all magic and spiritual power. Except one evening the moon doesn’t rise. Wait is this why we are hunting the moon? It’s up to you to solve the mystery of why the moon didn’t rise and return things back to normal. You can either go on this adventure alone or with other chosen children of the moon.

So what does it matter that the moon doesn’t rise? Well monsters show up and chaos increases across the lands. Lands like oceans and mountains. The world is dangerous and constantly changing which is why you must think carefully about what you do and how you use your weapons. You can craft in Moon Hunters as well. It’s about survival. The game does emphasise that your character has personalities. 

The journey in this game is random generated. There is said to be over a hundred different locations. The journey is centered around myths. The landmarks and different territories may contain myths. These are needed to advance your world and character. Your decisions will effect how different factions see you. There are new powers waiting to be unlocked. There are different myths, creatures and items. The story of Moon Hunter is not linear at all. It comes down to your decisions and responses to certain situations. For example, if a villager did you wrong, how would you deal with it? Will you let it go, get the truth out of them or kill them? So what kind of mythology will your character have? Best of all, this game has co-op action so you can play with your family and friends in the strange world of Moon Hunter.

Overall we think this is a good game indeed. We checked out some gameplay and we saw the art style, the different characters in the game, the different constellation that your character could have, some combat and more. The graphics for it’s style is okay, the environments though look cool. The music is nice. Fantasy worlds are just always exciting to explore and play simply because anything could be in it. There is no limit so we hope to see the bigger stuff of Moon Hunter in the future. The developers ‘Kitfox Games’ did a great job with this game. We at X35 Earthwalker will wait to see more of this game first but we like what we see. This game is worth checking out. We don’t care about constellations but… we do care about the ‘Earth Walk!’

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. Stealth much?

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun is a new hardcore tactical stealth game, developed by ‘Mimimi Productions’ and coming out August 1st for Xbox One, PS4, PC also Linux, Apple, Steam.

Shadow Tactics is set around the Edo period in Japan. That’s interesting and specific. We aren’t 100% certain of the games story but we do know quite a bit concerning the game. The player controls a team of ‘deadly specialists’. Assassins. This game is all about stealth and deciding what to do, how to do it and when to do it.

Firstly the group that you control is filled with very different individuals indeed but they must work together which initially looks impossible. The good thing though is that the game shows interest in the characters. More will be revealed about them including their own personal demons. So yes friendship and trust is important. There is Hayato who is an agile ninja who makes his way through his enemies silently wielding shuriken and sword. Aiko is all about camouflage and a master at it; she also can distract enemies disguised as a geisha. Yuki is all about traps and decoys. Already we can see the strategies already. Takuma is the markmans armed with a sniper rifle. Mugen is a samurai who rather takes the enemy on and is powerful enough to do so.

In Shadow of tactics, players must think carefully about how to approach the missions which are said to be challenging. So players must take into account how the characters will work together as a team. You will face snowy mountain monasteries, castles and even hidden forest camps. So how will you deal with the enemy? Complete stealth as in no one even knew you was there. Lure enemies into traps with decoys or how about a little bit of poison. 

There will be three difficulty levels so this game does have some mercy. There are multiple ways to take out your enemies so be creative and get experimental. You can move from roof to roof and even climb buildings for that elevation advantage over your enemies. Yes, we are all thinking it. Takuma should always be placed up on buildings for that nice clean shot.

We checked out some gameplay and we are definitely happy about this. The stealth mechanics here are more realistic as in you can’t kill someone standing right next to another enemy and no one notice. The environment can be used to your advantage like having Yuki cause a boulder to fall and cruch enemies below. In shadow mode you can set one action for each character. Then hit execute to have everything happen at once. If the enemy spot a dead body, they will actually do something realistic like alert all other guards and even call for reinforcements. You can hide in bushes and see a line of sight, just like in ‘Assassins creed Chronicles China’, meaning you can see where the enemies can see and what they are looking at. This game has got nothing but positive feedback and really high ratings across the board.

Overall this looks like an outstanding game. We would honestly prefer the game to be a bit more zoomed, like have everything bigger but it’s still great. The graphics are excellent and the environments have proof of work put into them. The sounds are what you would expect from a game set in this time and location and works very well. The developers ‘Mimimi Productions’ did an excellent job with this game. We at X35 Earthwalker are looking forward to more media and information concerning Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. Samurais are very popular but… not as popular as the ‘Earth Walk!’

Serial Cleaner. Available to clean soon

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker

Serial Cleaner is a new fast paced stealth action game, developed by ‘iFun4all S.A.’ and coming out July 14th for the Xbox One, PS4 and PC. This game looks like a little 2D game for quick fun but let’s see what’s really going on here in Serial Cleaner.

Serial Cleaner has the 1970s theme and aesthetics going on. Gamers play the main character who’s job is to literally clean. He cleans murder scenes. So the typical stuff like getting rid of blood stains, disposing of evidence, which includes murder weapons and off course… getting rid of the bodies. The developers mentioned that the key words for this game are: Experimenting, fast paced decision (even though that’s three words) and exploring. These words actually say quite a lot about the game. You must watch out for nosy bystanders and itchy-fingered police officers. Getting caught is an absolute no-no.

Here’s an interesting fact. Serial Cleaner uses Real-World Data to modify gameplay according to the time of day in player’s location. The levels take inspiration from actual 1970s murder scenes. The atmosphere and humor is said to be inspired by the Pulp Fiction movie and Fargo series. The game awards exploration. We checked out some gameplay and it’s safe to say that we were right. It’s a simple game meant for quick fun action. That’s it. Nothing to take seriously but something to give a go and have a laugh. Even the theme and style screams this at you. The mechanics are well done and work well so it is a good game but it really comes down to the gamers as to whether it’s their taste or not.

Overall the game has nice graphics for it’s style, the music is good and the inspiration behind the game gave Serial Cleaner and a nice boost. The developers ‘iFun4all S.A.’ did a good job with this game. Serial Cleaner may be worth checking out. Who here likes cleaning? Well we do like… the ‘Earth Walk!’
