    Got baited by the overwhelmingly positive reviews only to find out they were based on the political message of the game and memes rather than the actual gameplay. The game has barely anything to offer in terms of that to the point that I am asking myself how come it costs 8€ at full price rather than 1€ or so, which is the usual price of games of this quality. Even the "elements of base building and tower defense" barely hold up as something worth mentioning. Hard pass, feel scammed.

    I bought this because Fanatical removed it from a bundle after being pressured by the woke crowd. I paid twice as much for one game as I would have for the bundle of five or six games, but I don't care.

    This game is just an idea, staring the one true American hero. And it's about time too! We can always appreciate games with more up to date bad guys. WWII is so 1940s... zombies are so passee... but trust fund kommies? That's some motivation to start blasting away, this game gets straight to the point addictive.

    A really short but amusing game. Definitly better and cheaper than the communist made "Tonight We Riot". Yes, a Communist game that protests capitalism is twice the price of this game., you can't make this stuff up!

    TL;DR: If you enjoy top-down shooters with increasing levels of difficult hordes to mow down, then you'll likely enjoy this game! For less than $8: it's worth it! More so if you're a fan of this genre. I was gifted this game by a friend - thank you! First off, I generally do not play top-down shooters b/c they're not my 'cup of tea'. Regardless, I'll try to keep my review as non-bias as I can. The game-play itself is fun and challenging but simple. Survive each level by killing waves…

    The biggest draw to this game would be its relation to current events, but watch 10 seconds of a gameplay video or just scroll through a handful of screenshots and you will see EVERYTHING it has to offer in regards to satire. Underneath is a game that's unfinished, unrefined, and unbalanced. The object of the game is to kill large, unstoppable bullet sponge "boss" enemies to stop hordes of smaller zombies from endlessly spawning and chasing you down. Once the bosses are dead, mobs stop…

    Edit: I'd like to add to my review after playing it some more. I think I finally figured out the "rhythm" to the game and I'm no longer fumbling with the controls. Here's a hint for those of you struggling with levels 11-20 - ditch the pistol and machine gun - the shotgun is a great weapon to use, and the sniper rifle PIERCES enemies and can be used to take down a line of enemies at once. Run around the perimeter of the level - this lines them up for easy shots. Remember to try to headshot…

    Nice tight little twin stick shooter. Tight controls. Feels like Smash T.V. or the original Postal but based on more recent cultural events. Map kinda sucks, it's just a square - I kind of want to fight my way down the streets of Kenosha to get home when I get acquitted but the game is still in an early state. Very playable at the moment, could become something great with enough effort and TLC. It needs: A larger bestiary more weapons more environments Boss Binger (with his own AR-15 to…

    This game is amazing!!! Culling hoards of Antifa-tards & SJW's is even more satisfying that murdering Nazis! Fun, dynamic gameplay and super gets pretty challenging. The only thing I would change is to be able to customise the cursor. Reckon I'll be playing this one for a while..

    Play as a true American HERO. Kyle Rittenhouse is & always was innocent, cleared of all charges. Although the game is very simple & hard, it's so refreshing to find freedom of expression in gaming. Putting all the Antifa and LQBTQ mental illness as Zombies is such a great representation of them. They wanted to be represented & included, well they are in this game. Steam now a days, being the only platform that allows such mostly peaceful shooter game, is proof of how much censorship &…

    good game despite the repetitive gameplay loop past a certain point i dont understand the point of having all the weapons on the hotkeys, the shotgun/rocket launcher/minigun seem to be the objectively superior weapons past a certain point and you're never not gonna use the AR past unlocking them. add a way to choose which weapons to have past a certain point so you dont have to loop to the objectively inferior weapons to get the weapon you want

    The city is being vandalized. Fearing unfavorable MSM coverage, the police have gone into hiding. One champion stands to defend what order still remains while being attacked by the braindead... Hand-painted pixels, runs smooth like butter, and currently weighs in at a bit over 100 MB. The game sure gets difficult after a few levels, watch out for level 9 (currently at 23). Not worth it for zombies, but others should pick it up, especially on sale.

    The Pros I like the different weapons as you advance through the levels. This reminds me of the play style of SNES True Lies but with more blood and less stage variety. Its a top down survival shooter that gets increasingly harder. A good pick up and play. Many different any types with different attacks. So so The controls are okay. I use a PS4 controller and the joysticks are what allows you to cycle through weapons. It also gets you killed when you switch in the middle of combat…

    Really addictive and fun. Each level gets progressively harder as the horde of mindless protesters attack you for loving America and enjoying your rights. Mow them down and then get acquitted in court at the end of each level. Each acquittal just makes the leftist zombies even more mad. As they get triggered, you pull the pull the trigger. Love it.
