    I am writing this review for people who are familiar with this series. For those who are not, I will give a quick summary: Play Alien Shooter Revisited or Zombie Shooter instead. Much better games. One of the two latest entries into the Alien Shooter franchise, this game is based off of the engine for the first game. Graphics are about the same as the first Alien Shooter 1 based games due to massive asset reusage. This is not a problem in and of itself, but something to note regardless.…

    this is the first newer sigma team game i have played and it plays almost exactly like the original alien shooter that came out back in 2003 with some minor improvements new levels and a new gimmick. what was really good about this game was how they changed some of the enemies from the original game to make them more effective and to mix it up a bit, and the new turrets are essential to play this game if you dont use them you die. and what was not very nice about this game is that it reuses…

    Another game in the Alien shooter franchise. Literally everything is recycled from previous games. Only new thing is the ability to pick up and drop powerful turrets. Because of the new turrets the weapons have been nerfed, except the pistols which seem to have been buffed for some reason. Oh, there is a new final boss enemy that's super tough. Right now almost all the achievements are glitched so I've had to get my friend SAM to unlock them, and leaderboards don't seem to work. If you love…

    Oh well. Here we go again... The Last Hope is another version of the first iteration of Alien Shooter. Slightly refurbished levels, same enemies, and, quite notably, a good game pace and balance! There's nothing really new, except that idea of upgradable turrets which you can set as you like, to aid yourself in the direst situations. But it works! The game drive is ok, the optimization for Win10 and resolutions 2k+ is ok... What else you can ask for, from a twin-stick shooter? A decent story,…

    I really,really,really like the AlienShooter series,It occupied most of my childhood and most of the rest of it,I bought the PC version as soon as I knew it would hit the shelves in the wee hours of the 7th.Now i pass the game,It's a good process. New monsters, new sound effects, new props,new resolution,weapons optimize,these are all very good.The large turret was equipped with a ballistic,you can aim better.But it sounds more like a machine gun XD,not as shocking as it used to be.Anyway, this…

    Honestly don't get the positive reviews, the game is just horrible. It's a bad PC port of a mobile game, they didn't even bother to rename the prompts (eg tap here to proceed). Enemy spawning is completely broken. Rather than work its way up to hordes and different types of enemies, it just throws insane numbers of enemies and the turrets do nothing to make the experience any more pleasant. Even using cheats, it's a chore to play. Sigma Team should stop rehashing the same ideas and instead…

    NO 1. There's lots of things that suggest it's a port of a mobile game (the biggest giveaway being the UI and the way it functions). 2. The game works sorta better in 1920x1080 than the OG alien Shooter (the game doesn't require an exe hack for that, doesn't crash on some levels and tiles don't flicker) yet there's still no actual interface scaling in-game. 3. The entire level design revolves around blowing up enemy spawners with explosives that are sometimes hidden deep in the enemy lines…

    Alien Shooter Last Hope was a fun game at first. Then late game the issues of this game being a poor port of a mobile game became more and more obvious. there are dead zones where you can NOT aim and shoot your weapon. I try to shoot enemies from the top right corner with the magma cannon and I cant because the weapon selector is in the way. If it wasn't for that it would be worth the $5, but I had a good bit of situations where my weapon would just stop shooting and it just became frustrating.…

    Its an nice game but too short and very easy.For a longer game and a more challenging experience i suggest you to play it on very hard and i also think that the new turret should get a small improvement because it does small damage and its not that good.I also didn't find any bug or glitch until now.It will also be awesome if Sigma Team adds trading cards.

    Original formula with a twist, you can now place turrets to help you in your missions. Graphically and technically best game in the series, it would be my favorite if it wasn't for the ultimate nostalgia connected to Alien Shooter 2, so that one still holds my top spot. A must play for any fan of the series, let's hope they release more games alike, while very short it has some replay value, especially since there are some achievement challenges to work towards.

    As always i love these games from SIGMA but they really need to start making new ones instead of just moving some stuff around and renaming the same game so they can make more money. You have a great idea for a game SIGMA dont ruin it by getting greedy just build something nice and people will pay for it there are loads of us who love both the Alien and Zombie games.

    First thing to avoid glitched achievements, change version to Beta, since the time is bugged and so is The Wild West achievement, for it you can stay alive till the blue spider appears, or when you're near dying... quickly exit to main menu > new game > and quickly start survive with the same character, don't pick up any weapons, the timer will count towards Pistol achievement and should popup eventually.

    The 3rd expansion pack to the Alien Shooter game. It's stand-alone, so it doesn't need the original to work. It adds some new music and a new weapon, a turret. You need to use those turrets to clear the levels. The game is great, but it doesn't have the same quality as the original one. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2944714636

    Alien Shooter - Last Hope is basically a mission pack (as a standalone game) for the original Alien Shooter, with the older graphics. If you have played this series or Zombie Shooter, you know the drill: ten missions in the campaign, additional survival game mode, same old enemies, weapons and shop system, however now you can use turrets, which going to get upgraded throughout the campaign and there is a boss monster, too. I need to mention the new tracks in the game, which are quite good to be…

    Surprisingly they didnt mess this one up. In a sense this is an improved version of the first original Alien Shooter that we all love dearly. Turrets are an addition in this one for some reason but it isnt a bad one I guess... I was surprised to see them sort of adding a new enemy to the game and Ive never seen those blue-ish lab like walls be destructible before, but if such small details are the only new things added to this title then why bother paying for this one also?

    Solid spin-off with a lot of aliens to kill. Maybe little harder than first game but still with good menagement and knowledge you'll still complete it without a trouble. The addition in this one(turrets) are really helpfoul and with good placement will be your main source of damage in the most part of the campaign. There are few new enemies what I appreciate and last level with a boss battle. If someone wants to complete it on the hardest difficulty I suggest completing it on easier difficulty…

With the same visual bugs as in the previous 5 games, with resolutions up to!!!! FullHD 1920x1080 which is the highest resolution available in the world! As I type this on my 3840x2400px laptop screen from distant future 2024. What's worse is that the UI doesn't scale, so main menu and shop between the levels is about 2 square…

    This is nowhere near as fun as the original Alien Shooter. The camera is way too far from the map, and the weapons don't shoot where the crosshair is. The music is the same from the other games, and the graphics are worse than the original for some reason. The pixelated graphics are way better than what this have. And the animations are worse too. I bouht this for less than 2 euros, but I refunded it anyways. This is not my kind of alien shooter.

    Honestly I don't know why I play this, but also, I don't know why I can't stop. Immensely satisfying setting down a killing field with 2 or 3 turrets and kiting hordes to their deaths. It's probably too easy, secrets are a pita to find sometimes (i just give up, can't be bothered). It's buggy, the graphics are pants. It's max 1920, text is almost too small to read. Cheap, nasty and utterly addictive.

    In this episode of Alien Shooter; Arnold Schwarzenegger is tired from his previous experience against massive hordes of aliens, so he is back like he promised - not with a truck crashing through the front door, but with deployable turrets to make things a bit more spicy. 7.5/10 - It's cheap. It's more alien shooter,. Get em!

    Just another alien shooter campaign of a few maps. More of a DLC than a full Alienshooter game no dialogue just go there and shoot type of game with a survival mode. The story if you would like to call it that is just simple retrieve and upgrade a turret that will help us fight the aliens. if you really like AS and just crave more of it then go ahead and buy it preferably on sale. Otherwise don't.

    This game is a LEGEND. Original IS. This mode - is a trash spinoff. Unbalanced crap. Of cause im talking about play on HARD, where final level was never facing QA. Just bunch of numbers. It is not HARD by SKILL it is HARD by STUPIDITY and NUMBERS. Otherwise - another alien shooter story, now with useless turrets and even more monsters, especially several survival tier boss monsters in campaign. Good luck.

    This is a very fun game with just a few issues that bog down the experience. Much like the first Alien Shooter game, you are tasked with killing countless massive mobs of enemies while strafing and shooting. In this game you can also lay down turrets. The turrets aren't optional; the game can't be completed without using them since they are actually more powerful than your weapons and lay down defensive fire. Much like the first game, there is a linear progression as you pick up more powerful…

    The gameplay itself is fine for what it is, it's the same formula as always with the new twist of having deployable turrets alongside the regular arsenal. The levels are somewhat reminiscent of the original game's levels but definitely still original. The reason I can not recommend it is on account of its technical issues. Even though the game has been out for a few years, it doesn't look like much was done to address them. The game is clearly ported from a mobile game, and while that isn't…

    Alien Shooter - Last Hope is a new game in the series. Fans of the series will be familiar with the format. Blow up thousands of aliens, rinse and repeat. I mostly enjoyed the game even though it is a bit short. The new turrets are handy and actually make for a new type of strategic game play. What I disliked: Level design is boring. It's also annoying when the aliens break out of walls behind where you've been, so you're forced to fight in front and back. I guess that's what the turrets are…

    TL;DR: If you liked the original Alien Shooter, have another 5 dollars to spare and ready for a bit new turret-based gameplay than you can safely buy and play. If you need a closer camera similar to the original just change the resolution to the lowest one - the picture quality doesn't really worsen anyway. Initially, when I saw The Last Hope I considered it another lame remaster of the original to make more money, however, when I looked into description I was surprised to know that The Last…

    It has promise. But it looks like it's in its early stage. The text is usually all but unreadable -- regardless of the graphics settings. It's probably better with a controller rather than mouse and keyboard, which was what I was using. But I say again -- the game has promise. Their earlier(?) game Alien Shooter TD was much better.

    It's called Last Hope, because of millions of enemies, that would swarm you. Turrets are your best friends and their proprer placement will increase your chances of survival. And there's a lot of blue aliens, that were the boss type enemy in the first game, that are common enemies now. The only anoying thing are the UI interfering with weapon firing, but the game is really easy even on hard. The achivements are kind of buged, and you may not get them, even if you did do everything they said.

Otherwise it's really just more of the same "Alien Shooter" The turret device inclusion calls for strategic placement, because you won't be getting too far through this game without them. Of course you are limited with only so many of them, so you can't afford to waste them. The game's…
