60 of 181 · most liked firstI bought this game during a sale because I thought "heh, rail shooter, why not" That was not a purchase. That was a BLESSING. I cancelled my gym membership, since I started playing this game. I don't need it. My right arm has become so powerful from moving the mouse during this game that I can open pickle jars that haven't been opened since 1987. TONY LUCIANO. A psychopathic mafia son trying to rescue his girlfriend Cherry Popz from a gang. This is high literature. Homer wishes he thought of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →really fun and funny railshooter, a criminally under-represented genre. pretty short even with 2 game modes, so probably wait for a sale, and screams for a sequel that's unlikely to happen.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →transphobic joke in the first 20 min = instant refund
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is one of the funniest sh*t I ever played. Pity the story mode is not longer
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The best rail shooter I've ever seen, a beautiful stripper in the story, but the game gets boring quickly.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Originally from the creation of Viktor Kalvachev's graphic novel for mature readers a.k.a. adults! This rail-shooter is quite fun and hilarious if you like something similar with Time Crisis or The House Of The Dead series. X3 It is definitely violent, offensive, foul-mouthed, and plays on all types of distasteful stereotypes. If any of that things are not your preferences, or you’re easily insulted by boilerplate racial or sexual characterizations, best to stay away from this one. But, if…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Criminally Underrated On-Rail Shooter One of the best on-rail shooters I’ve ever played. The first two levels are something unbelievable, absolutely amazing. That alone makes this game a must-play. The game has a great atmosphere. Art design and sound perfectly catch the mood of Hong Kong action movies from the ’90s. Honestly, everything here is hyperbolic and parody-like -total madness and mayhem. Black humor, tits, ball shooting - god, how amazing is this. The only bad thing is that the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Wanted to give this game a new try (the first time was back when it was new), and it didn't take long to find it just as underwhelming as it was then. I like some rail shooters, just point-shoot-reload and little else, but despite having only seven stages, Blue Estate manages to overstay its welcome right from the start, as no amount of self-aware humour can change the fact that you loop time and again back into the same hall at the Twin Dragon. This ends up hurting even parts that could be…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game was a fantastic surprise. It is exactly what I expect from a onrail shooter. Pure fun and comedy. A must play :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Crap story, crap jokes, crap bosses, crap all around Pros: cherry (aka stripper) Save money on this.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly it's a blast! If you like Time Crisis and House of the Dead genre of shooter on rails this can be for you. Action movie references and games, loads of jokes and humour. Honestly I had fun like I haven't in a while. And all that just for 1,03€?!?! Yes!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is fantastic and works perfectly with the Sinden Lightgun. There is no need for any path! I want more game like this <3
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you've played Virtua cop in your childhood and if you like Deadpool type of humor, then this game is for you.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really fun Light gun shooter *played using Sinden Lightgun
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game is actually pretty darn killer. Sure its an outdated format (on rails shooter) but from the games ive played in the genre this just might be the best one ive played period. If this game is light gun compatible this is a serious contender. Now i don't actually know what blue estate is so i obviously dont get all the refrences that people who know the source material would but the humor and story really is silly, reminded me very much of the type of humor you would get in Shadow warrior so…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its super fun and funny, sexualized game. I recommend it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nothing bad to say about it. It's fun, on-rails shooter with a silly/stupid sense of humour, which I like. Might not be for everyone, but on a sale, you won't regret it, if you're just looking for something to pass the time and have a chuckle.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Decent enough combat as far as a rail shooter goes but wow did the comedy not age well (if it was even funny at the time). I think I laughed maybe once during the 6 hours it took to beat it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly, I didn't expect much, but this game was ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome. It's short, stupid in the best way, and doesn't take itself seriously at all, which works. The humor actually made me laugh more than once, and Yeah, the shooting just feels good. It's a dumb over-the-top ride and I enjoyed it a lot. 9.5 outta 10. Would absolutely play this crazy ♥♥♥♥ again.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome it is THEE PC light gun gun we never had. Like a mix of Virtua Cop, Time Crisis and Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles with a Yakuza style gangsta vibe. It's funny and in your face and doesn't pull it's punches. Will probably offend the wokies. Essential purchase and yes it works great on steam deck.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You can get a key for this game for as low as 50 cents. Yes, 50 CENTS. And for that you may as well break into the devs' homes and rob them, because this game is worth it's price and then some. Sure, there's only like 8 levels (16 if you count the arcade mode versions) but they're pretty lengthy and fun, and I'm not gonna look a gift horse in the mouse considering you barely get games like this available on PC nowadays. And the humor? I love it, sure it might not be everyone's cup of tea,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Packed with solid gameplay and a small learning curve, Blue Estate breathes new life into the dying rail shooter genre. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3505090041 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3505795125
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A great example of what a modern on-rails shooter can be. Fun and entertaining. Why is this genre dead?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Stupidly fun and heavily underrated rail shooter Sure some of the running gags like hairs falling over your eyes every minute, did get a little annoying but overall theme and humor of the game is just something else Gameplay wise also pretty solid and well polished, no complaints here Extremely easy 100% which wasn't as daunting as i thought
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It pains me to give this game a negative review. But I really have to be honest with my "personal" standards. Why a negative review? Well, it's because the humours are NOT fun at all. It's itching, but not enough to make me laugh (but I read a lot of reviews complimenting this aspect, so I guess our senses of humour are just different). The Abnormal difficulty is too easy for PC (and the harder one is unlocked only after you complete this difficulty), but I believe the game is made for light…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A short but very entertaining shooter with non-stop action. What stood out to me most was the humor—the jokes and funny moments between missions kept me laughing throughout the game. The gameplay is simple and fast-paced, and despite its short length, it never gets boring.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Outrageously over the top action and humour. As someone who isn't usually a massive fan of on rail shooters, I was pleasantly surprised with how much fun this was. Great graphics, cool story, and it made me feel like a badass, definitely worth checking out, this game is a blast.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really fun short game. It feels like John Wick and Deadpool had a baby, and this game was the result. It has a lot of replay value, as these types of games usually do, in order to get a higher score. There's also 2 player local co-op. Runs great at 4K@120Hz with the current specs.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →close enough, welcome back virtua cop
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is a very fun shooting game !!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wish I could give this a sideways thumb. Easily one of the funniest games I have ever played, but there's just not much there. I finished the story in about 3 hours. If your not one to perfect games, that's about all you will get out of it. I got this game for a dollar. Did I get my dollar worth? Oh yeah! If I bought this game for its retail price, would have I gotten my twelve dollars worth? If I were perfecting the game, maybe. But for just a one time playthrough, on rails shooter, I'm…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL;DR: Time Crisis 3, but also THOTD: Overkill. Very generic and a mixed bag for me. Only get it on sale! Summary: Based the graphic novel by Viktor Kalvachev, the game is...ehhh, okay I guess. It's okay because it's your typical rail shooter in addition with Over the top humor. You play as either an incompetent son of a Mafia or an ex-Navy SEAL in later playthrough just to steal a prize horse. Pros: It's an entertaining fun shooting, with variety of weapons. From Standard Magnum/1911…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/IO0ESVv6PKY So, my Blue Estate Story mode playthrough is finally completed in full, I've been I wanted to complete this game for weeks I played whenever I found the time (away from work.) It requires grinding quite a bit in order to get through the first 3 stages especially, then it becomes pretty natural. I actually loved this game, was a few dollars to have your own arcade at home that you can play any time you feel like it. The Characters were great, voice acting great, and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unskippable cutscenes where the cutscenes are just sex & corny jokes. I really want to tick off this game from my backlog because it's one of the first game I bought on Steam, but I just can't and probably never will.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Having played rail shooters before, I wasn't expecting a good story, as the genre's arcade nature prioritizes action. I was pleasantly surprised to find a high-quality story and humor that I think even more serious media should have. The game features two distinct characters with different play styles, as shown in the trailer. Play as Tony, an inexperienced character whose vision is constantly obstructed by his hair, or play as Clarence, a skilled marksman who is inexplicably followed by…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is the highest quality game I've seen made specifically for light guns. While the visuals can't challenge modern AAA games, they are still way above any indy game. The gameplay itself is also quite good, and does not require complex controls.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremely similar in both gameplay and tone to House of the Dead Overkill (HotD's more comedic, puerile spin-off). Don't play this if you'll be disappointed by a rail shooter with adolescent humour.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Probably the best rail shooter I have ever played. Lots of charm or lack thereof and fun weapons make this short, slow-mo filled campaign a fun time that does not overstay its welcome.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ass, ass, ass, and ass.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →10/10 would save the stripper again
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Reminds me of Point Blank (PS1) and Time Crisis (PS1).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I miss rail shooters. This is a very good one.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →6/10. Fine game, the jokes and gags are funny for the first missions after that they get quite boring since they don't innovate. The bosses have too much health and in two fights the room just repeats itself. The arcade missions are ok. Music must be turned on to at least 5% or 10% otherwise cutscenes will have no sound. Don't go to the developer website since it will redirect you to a chinese betting site, same with the comic one.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A thrilling and immersive shooter with impressive visuals, engaging gameplay, and a compelling storyline that keeps players entertained from start to finish.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Blue Estate is a loud, abrasive, and unapologetically stylized rail shooter developed and published by HE SAW that embraces excess as its defining feature. Inspired by a graphic novel universe, the game channels the spirit of grindhouse cinema and old-school arcade cabinets, delivering a fast-moving shooting experience that values attitude, humor, and raw spectacle over subtlety or realism. From the moment it begins, it makes its intentions clear: this is a game about blasting through waves of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In my opinion Blue Estate is an underwhelming on-the-rails shooter. It's just mindless shooting without much else. Someone will say: "but on-the-rails are just like that! mindless shooting!". Ok but for sure there are much better games of the same genre, that accompany the combat with some nice story. A notable example is Call of Juarez: Gunslinger. In this game I didn't like the story, which I found completely uninteresting and not conveyed well. The main narrator speaks too quickly so it was…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The genre of on-rail shooter games, despite the extremely long history, has not seen a worthy new entry in, what, 25 years? Of course, the reasons are many and all are understandable: the light gun technology has become obsolete; similar but more polished genres have taken over the landscape; and people simply stopped caring about the genre anymore. Still, if for some (weird) reason you’re being hit by a wave of nostalgia, or have the sudden urge for old-fashioned “shoot-everything-that-moves”…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Genuinely amazing game. Short, but I've had a lot of fun. Would recommend.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i cant belive this game is such a hidden gem of a on rail shooter story was funny as hell gameplay felt amazing like how you can use the mouse to swipe by reaction time over all 200/200 game wish we had more on rails like theses in 2025
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A funny game and a well-made on-rails shooter. That genre was already considered ancient by when the game came out 10 years ago and is almost forgotten now, the last examples living in the few remaining arcades, but this game is a stellar example of it. It invests a lot in humour which isn't always great or even funny, especially in the Tony levels. However the interactions in the Clarence levels between Clarence and the dense mob henchmen Lino and Mauro were comedic standouts. Also the comic…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →“Disclaimer: The people you are about to encounter should not be confused with heroes. They are mostly terrible people who say and do horrendous things. Especially TONY LUCHIANO.“
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've been craving an on-rails shooter for a long time, and Blue Estate really delivered. The only downside is that it's short—like most games in the genre. But I'll definitely come back to it often!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Super fun arcade shooter, on rails like Time Crisis or House of The Dead but funnier and with more mechanics, game has a lot of bad reviews because millenials cant stomach 90s humor. and everything they touch... they ruin it. So if you are a true man this game will give you good times, if not you can keep crying that Kamala lost in your safe space.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So I saw this for cheap and thought I would give it a go with my new retro shooter light guns hoping it wasn't too difficult to configure. IT WAS PLUG AND PLAY EVERYTHING WORKED! Lights, recoil, pedal everything perfect after just switching to raw mouse input (recommended for lightguns). What a treat the game is. Looks great. Music is pretty funky and it plays like of time crisis decided to be Postal 2. Superb.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As of right now it's on sale for 1$ so... This game was a ton of fun. I don't play many on-rails shooters but it gave me nostalgia for my old half broken plastic guns and time crisis 2. I the jokes actually had me laughing at parts but they just try to throw in as many as they can making it very hit and miss. It was an enjoyable few hours but at normal price it's short unless you plan to be playing arcade mode for high scores. But overall, I kicked I chihuahua onto a guys face 10/10
