positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →+ Stylish graphics + Fun to kill targets in all kinds of different ways + Plenty of scenarios +/- Certain traps can only be placed on certain spots, no complete freedom +/- Pathfinding problems can result in frustration; not always clear where a target will go to when he's alerted or when a trap is placed in front of him - Secondary objectives not always clear - Collecting teeth is an useless objective which hardly requires any effort - The music, oh my god, the music [Rating: 77/100]
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The concept is neat, but each scenario is samey, and difficulty is derived from trial and error that comes from floaty and kinaesthetically displeasing physics. Menus are fine, and the visual style is neat, but audio is best muted. Kill The Bad Guy is about figuring out exactly what the developer wants you to do, and no deviation from this course is permitted. Don't let me completely dissuade you, though - if you're genuinely interested, download the demo before you buy. I'm sure there's some…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Let's be honest, with the current price tag this game is a bad dissapointment. Basically it's nothing more than a puzle game and not a creative killing game. The background of the victims doesn't mean a thing either, which would have been a nice addition if you could use their own crimes against them. On the other hand, it's well made. The graphics are good, the sound is acceptable and there's a bit of replay value. Not much, but there's. Would I buy this game again, with the information I've…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are many bad indie games on Steam, so many of the good games are overlooked. This is among one of the best tactic/puzzle games. Pro's: 1. It's a very funny game. 2. The graphics looks nice. 3. The Soundtrack is perfect. 4. Low price 5. Nice minigames 6. Innovative gameplay 7. Steam achievments Con's: 1. Not very colorful. You will have a great time playing it. *** I got this key as donation from the developer because i hosted a promo giveaway for them *** If you liked this review…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL:DR - Game starts good but after first 20 levels game turns into frustrating experience mainly because of the camera. Game got a neat idea - kill the baddie and makes it look like an accident. There are some original(use tree as catapult and load a dead dog on it) and generic(run them over with a car) ways to kill them. Art is neat. With black are marked the stuff you can use and civilians,cops and cameras for which you have to look for. With yellow is baddie and rest is white. Game offers…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is extremely creative in ways of killing "the bad guy" haha great game for people who love puzzlers but i'm pretty sure its tablet port but a very good one.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Although there is a lot of blood and killing, this game is really a pretty tricky puzzle game. There is very limited freedom in your options how to kill the guy, most often an obvious and a less obvious solution. But when you solve it it's very satisfying to see the guy splattered all over a wall, floor, car, whatever. The puzzles can be pretty challenging and sometimes a bit unclear. To fully complete a puzzle you probably need to retry it a few times, especially to get the second objective.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun...But Not for Too Long The idea that you can manipulate the world around the bad guy to kill him is amusing. However as the levels progress, they get somewhat repetitive and it feels like you are doing the same this over and over again with little variation. However, for all those that enjoy the game and are not bored within an hour or so there are plently of levels to complete which provides for a substantial gameplay time. There are gameplay elements that make this game somewhat…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is sooooooo fun! I've been streaming it and giving it away on my stream, and so far i'm having a great time with it and the viewers who got it from me are also really enjoying it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Even though I do not (personally) recommend this game, I do recommend to those who find this appealing. I highly recommend buying on sale as stated price does not feel worth it. Kill the Bad Guy has been on my wishlist for a while. I like games where there is an overhead view of everything and seemingly anything can be manipulated. Kill the Bad guy is a puzzle type game where the player can use one or more objects (by combining them) to eliminate the target. The game doesn't change in any…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun concept but gets a bit repetitive after a while. Interface is clunky and can be quite annoying. Some nice jokes in there though.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Kill The Bad Guy is a strategical action game where your main goal is to kill the "bad guy" . Well when you start a single player in this game, you will find here a lot of levels to complete. The levels are grouped in some "stages" after complete a that stage levels you will find that a difficulty a bit grow more than before, for example you will find cameras what should avoid etc. Every level you can complete in different ways, but try always do even more bloody kill to reach a bigger high…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Interesting concept and quite fun for a few levels. However, two things kinda ruin it: - the lack of camera rotation - the inability to turn off moving the screen around by holding left click Especially the latter is irritating, since you activate stuff by left clicking as well, and many objects require a precise dragging motion within a specific area. The later puzzles require some absurdly strict timing and it's way too easy to miss and move the screen by mistake, making you restart and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An interesting puzzle game where quick decision making and fast reflexes can be an asset, but are not generally required. 60 "levels" plus bonus areas, most can be completed in under a minute once you figure out what to do. Much of the gameplay is in figuring out what to do. The controls are quirky and give me the feeling this was meant for a touchscreen. A few keyboard shortcuts would have made the gameplay less annoying and much more enjoyable. Some of the achievements are funny, but many…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not Recommended
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Kill the Bad Guy is an idea that sounds great on paper, but lacks the proper execution to be any kind of fun. Players are expected to figure out how to kill the bad guy by combining and interacting with various objects within a level. The main problem with this game is that the behaviours of each individual object isn't immediately clear, which prevents players from being able to efficiently plan a strategy. Add to this that the bad guy never shows a clear direction or path, and the result is a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A really neat little puzzle/strategy game, with multiple ways to complete the objective of, unsurprisingly, killing the bad guy. To give you an idea of its quality as a time-waster, I've only given it two play sessions and am somewhere around level 60. Most of the 'bad guys' are based on real people or famous fictional characters, including Saddam Hussein, Freddie Kreuger and even Oscar Pistorius. It's kept fresh by the addition of obstacles to getting your target such as roving witnesses,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really like this game, and I’m not sure why. From the moment you boot it up, Kill the Bad Guy looks, feels and plays just like a mobile game. The interface is blatantly designed for a touch interface, the art is minimalistic but in a way that looks like it was only made that way to run on mobile hardware, and the levels are your typical “get x number of stars”. If you judge it by it’s cover, Kill the Bad Guy is just another shoddy mobile port trying to cash in on Steam. Yet it’s not. It’s…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game was the reason I paid more than $1 for the recent Humble Weekly Bundle, and frankly, I am not too thrilled about this fact. Maybe I should start paying attention to the preview videos and not automatically assume that a game will be fun after skimming through the product page and seeing "7/10 – Gamespot". (IGN weren't available for a quick 11/10 quote?) The gameplay is incredibly shallow for a game that can be roughly identified as "Rube Goldberg"-style. You'd think the game…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a cool, slick, puzzle game that reminds me, in a way, of something like World of Goo. Except a lot bloodier. It is heavily based on physics, because the goal is to create elaborate Rube Goldberg style traps that "accidentally" kill the current target. You get extra points for being particularly inventive, and if you get caught then you lose the round. This is a fun, whimsical and cynical game. One of those that you'll fire up intending to only play for 15 minutes and then end up…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gets repetitive very quick, and they need to have better tutorials.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a fun, strategic, puzzle-esque style game where you get to blow off steam while killing bad guys in whatever manner you feel fit given the resources in each scenario.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Note: This review was written and published before the inclusion of the game's multiplayer feature and thus it is not mentioned throughout. Watching over a man in a garish yellow jacket and a bullseye mask while rigging various death traps conveniently placed into his path, one might feel like a god. Granted, a god that will ultimately be faced with ending the life of a being lesser than itself in order to proceed, but a god all the same. That's the basic premise of Kill The Bad Guy. It's a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very simplistic puzzle game, this has very little strategy and mostly it feels very linear. Seems like a $2.99 phone app game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Perhaps not a bad game, but just not my cup of tea. I was bored after 18 minutes. The interface is simple and I saw no bugs, it is just .. I was not interested in playing anymore. After 18 minutes.... why should I add anything to that?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Taking Revenge On Evil In this game each stage is about eliminating a bad guy. Just before the level we get a short description as to who we need to murder; the names range from real life serial killers to made-up nicknames and even antagonists of famous franchises (e.g. Sauron or Voldemort) are included. The tone here is certainly comedic - even the description wants you to understand that behind the brutality (as in gore and violence) of the game there's not much seriousness. Monochrome Fun…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Our main objective is to skillfully eliminate the bad guy while ensuring there are no witnesses. Each of the game's 66 levels has a different scenario, location, and route our target takes before leaving the map, which restarts the level. The graphics are "symbolic," and the music is merely a monotonous addition. The concept seemed interesting, the game is enjoyable and satisfying at first, but it quickly becomes linear and predictable. The lack of variety of scenarios doesn't help here, as…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Yes we kill bad guy. Plan your strategy to take him down without getting caught. This is easy on some stages and sometime it takes a while. Nice strategy game to play as solo and multiplayer.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's an ok little game, but it's frustrating as all hell. Not in a good way either. It just kinda drags in spots. 5/10? 6/10? Something like that.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Feels like a flash game, very bland puzzle. Don't bother
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is so funny . Need to plan it well to kill a bad guy ! XDD
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game. I killed the bad guy with a dead dog. The camera jumps around on me some though, usually at the worst possible time, but then again, when is it ever a good time for the camera to be somewhere completely off from where you need it? The objectives are very repetitive, but the puzzles and general gameplay are very fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game, BUT lots of times i can't select some objects. And that is a mission failed. Hope they look into that, because it's really frustrating.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is a nice game with some fun aspects to it, however I don't like the such short duration for each level, you can't properly set yourself up, or have the most fun with finding ways to 'KILL THE BAD GUY' but its good as a time waster game 6/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →lol. I love these creative indie games.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun to kill time with. To bad time isnt a bad guy. Or a person. Or anything tangible.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun little puzzle game. Some of the controls are maddening, as camera control is VERY sensitive, and catching the tooth is nigh on impossible with a mouse. This is another game that makes it clear that it was meant for mobile platforms, but the translation isn't bad. Perhaps just a TOUCH more guidance would be nice, but it will pass the time nicely.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Killed a guy by tossing a dead dog on his head.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoy the game idea and the aesthetics. It has a lot of amazing ideas in it and i would gladly like to give it a thumbs up, but the controls are so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ finicky and bugged at times that i just can't do it. For someone who is interested in getting all of the achievements this is almost impossible, since some seem to be bugged. Also even though graphics would imply that the game is not too hardware hungry, at times it will bring my lets say mediocre gaming pc, which is able to run most of…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →threw a dead dog thats limbs fell off on impact with the guy i was trying to kill
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →1. What do I have to say about this game? 2. I killed a guy while he was watching porn! 3. Enough said :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very different approach to a puzzle game, I like it. Its different in a good way. U basically play as a god controlling the props to kill your target which is the badguy...cuz its in the title. U KIll The Bad Guy. The puzzles are sometimes challenging but fun, I enjoy it very much. However, challenging puzzle can be quite confusing sometimes as it is not very clear in objectives. The soundtrack can be better, and personally the menu music is...well, can be different. =m= I think this game…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I usually enjoy puzzle games, but this one was just a pain. The bad guy's behavior is inconsistent(maybe a timing thing?) which really screws you when you need to make him walk to a specific part of the map. Sometimes he'll see a barrier and walk a different direction, but sometimes he'll notice it and still walk past it. The camera is another big issue for me. Click and drag moves the camera, but it also does all your interactions, so you have all these conflicts when it gets to the point…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Brief Review This is a game about killing, but it's a fun, lightweight game about killing that mostly succeeds by blending cunning logic- and physics-based puzzles with a great sense of humor relating to the daydream revenge fantasies that we all have about taking out everyone from serial killers to rapist etc Pros and Cons Pros Innovative and enjoyable puzzles Great main theme song Catchy background music Cons Repetitive An Ending Crush, kill, destroy...and laugh
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →KTBG has some potential, however, even for an EA title, it is very repetitive, and there are not much difference between each level... You can't really do what you want, and there a not much ways to kill the bad guy. You often find yourself thinking : I want to kill him like this, but you have no other option. All the "bad guys" are the same, no specific behaviour form one to another. I don't play multiplayer, and I can't remember if devs were talking about the multiplayer mode when I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"Kill The Bad Guy" is a pretty tricky puzzle game which suffers some control issues. --------"How many guys are suspicious in life, the way they go trough with their done. How many people wanna see you die, that my friend is true....BOOM!"--------
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fun puzzle game once you get past the first few levels.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The concept behind this game is simple. The title says it all. There is a bad guy who you have to kill by any means possible. This game has a simple to use mechanic which makes it entertaining and fun. I put 102 minutes into it which is probably about the extent of what I see myself getting out of it. It is a good mildly entertaining game. I don't see it being replayable. It can get a bit bland. The creative concept behind it is good and cool. Everything is kept simple. You don't have to put a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its just really average, and all you do is click items and hope it works in the way you expect. Plenty of times, it won't.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty cool and also works on Linux.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Update 2 ---------- As indicated by others in the forums for their other games, the developers have jumped ship. They do not care about bugs or issue you may have, because they've already taken your money. Update ---------- Quite funny that the developers felt inclined to vote my review down (en mass) on the basis that they thought it was their god-given right to have a higher score just because it was an indie game. Indie games should be created in such a way that they incorporate lots of…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is disturbingly enjoyable & addictive :-)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So let me just say that I LOVE THIS GAME. Here is why I love it. It requires thinking, has a very good sense of humor that is dark and quirky. Basically there are 66 levels, (possibly more for all I know) which has a sort of angry birds type of system, where every level you try to complete the object (kill the bad guy) and earn all the stars, (five to six for each level.) You must kill the bad guy in each level by making it look like an accident and trying not to get caught by civilians,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I don't exactly not recommend this game but I can't quite recommend it either. The premise is this game's biggest and best selling point, where you, as the title says, kill the bad guy. The descriptions are amusing, to me at least. The controls, however, are atrocious. Click+drag does far more than its fair share, between moving the map and interacting with various items. Some of these interactions are (somewhat) reasonable, such as the things that need aiming. Not so much the things that…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →to be honest i think there should be free build mode
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →you can make the bad guy walk through a broken gasoline pipe then burn them to death 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A small game but fun. The good: - fun to play - has quite a few fun levels the bad: - game is short - there is only 1 "good" way to kill the guy in any level
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Before you buy, see a Gameplay video of it. I got one for you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fxk1I3U8DXI ------- All you have to do is, click here click there, time the thing then click and here you go. didn't hit, try next day, if he didn't catch you and you fail. and sometimes he got killed accidentally. its not physics, its point and click in the right time. There is no real puzzles nor strategy, as you just have to try again and again. It get interesting in some point, but you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly, i thought this was guna be good from the trailers, giving u multiple and hilarious ways of killing the 'bad guy' making it to a sort of 3d flakboy game. Except this is nothing like that, this is a puzzle game where your given a door and told to unlock it, and the single key is on the table right next to u. There is no challenge to this other than trying to see what an object will do, which after the first few levels, u get what will happen. It is suppose to be try and find a clever…
