A well executed remake that's got more content than the original including awesome new animated cut scenes, challenges and skins. Please Sky9, remake Raze 2 like this i'm begging you XD
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not worth buying The main selling point of this game is nostalgia, it has no legs of its own to stand on The story is nonsensical, disjointed and badly paced and the characters are very dumb and one note and are anticlimacticly killed off for no real reason. Riggs is dumber rambo, Toad is the smart guy, Bull is just Patrick the star, Shadow is wannabe Ghost from COD complete with a very fake british accent. The characters feel like caricatures of their original characters. Im not saying…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A Game Blinded by Nostalgia Hundreds and thousands review the game as 'peak nostalgia', I'm sorry, this game does have its faults. It may be a good game, but to me it failed to capture the original charm it once had. It originally launched with some bugs although my experience was horrible. I don't recommend it at all, I've lost hours of progress to which the devs were aware, addressed and didn't properly fix it, unsure if there were timed exclusives through seasonal events or anything. This…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is such a peak port/remaster of the original flash game that I REALLY REALLY want Strike Force Heroes 2 to be ported over.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I REALLY REALLY LOVED THIS SERIES. As a fan I had at least few 100s or even 1000h in flash games. I followed development, and wanted to buy it at lunch, but there was something off... And it looks like I had good feeling This is unfinished, in sense it's unpolished. Some of these things could take few hours of work at most. I have no idea why those are not fixed/finished.... - There is no Discord invitation anywhere. - The leveling system is unclear for characters. The game never properly…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I love nostalgia! I personally prefer SFH2 over the first but I like the remake. Just wish that they toned down the comedic side a little since it feels overly forced with the cutscenes. I won't lie it is hard to justify the pricing even with the 35% discount so take that as you will.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →all those after school hours on miniclip are coming back
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just nostalgia bait, the game just isn't all that well made. The game balance is trash, the level system basically means nothing, the missions feel like community mods for Doom 2 and the fact that all your saves get deleted when you uninstall the game makes no damn sense. Games far older than this have managed to do everything this game fails at far better than it ever could, not worth your time or money unless you're really into nostalgia.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i remember playing this game free on a website back in the good old days not worth 20$ though so wait till deal i got it for 12.99$ it shoulda been 5$ at most the bots can be a bit retarded at times
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'll put in my two cents since I've seen an influx of people parroting the same "cash grab" claim unsubstantiated, and of all the criticism you can levy at this game, being a lazy scam is not one of them. Effort doesn't beget quality, but if you're going to dog on the game, at least be honest in what's wrong. A lot was changed between the original and the remaster, for better and for worse. One of the biggest issues with this is it being mislabeled a "Remaster" instead of a "Remake." Weapons…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →my childhood game <3 , I love that its not much of a difference from the OG game , hope for SFH 2 ^^
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just a cash grab at nostalgia
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Random loot drop every mission. Can still buy stuff with the in-game money, but it's on a rotating store. Between that and some questionable design choices for a game that has a big place in peoples hearts just makes it bleh. HIGHLY recommend downloading the .swf of the original game and playing that. When they still cared and didn't just make another loot shooter. How you can remake an amazing and FREE game and turn it into garbage that cost $20 is insane.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Strike Force Heroes 2 Remake when??? I'd pay full price for this honestly. Please make it happen.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I grew up with SFH, Raze and many other Flash games. I've sunk a lot of time into this to really give it some thought. This SFH game is an excellent port/remake of the first SFH Flash game into a modern engine, and I would suggest playing this instead of the Flash derivatives. The visuals are greatly improved, the story is much more coherent and performance is much better. You also have many different weapons and equipment to choose from for each character, along with new abilities. Where this…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Strike Force Heroes 1 and 2 were one of my favorite Flash games, but this game somehow being more than a decade older feels kind of worse. From a gameplay perspective, guns don't feel as good, their range and inacuracy in order to balance the game were made unbearable on half of the guns, the new boss fight missions feel like a slightly more different and annoying version of regular missions on the map that's being reused for the third time. The game has bugs and the game isn't optimized well…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Okay, so I actually would like to give it a mixed review here The "Re-imagined" version of the old flash game series does not only makes the game better in a lot of aspects, but also make it less fun in some aspects Compared to the original (which is still available for free in browser gaming sites), this one has completely remastered all the animations and graphics, modernizing the game from the fun cutscenes to the fluid movement in game. The fully voiced and animated cutscenes every…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly I grew up playing the original games, and this game is nothing like those. If anything it is a nostalgia bait for cash, the weapons are all nerfed compared to the originals, the ability to not have two class have the same secondary weapon at once is also aggravating and the blue and purple guns are a complete shame to what this game was. it seems in there attempts to balance the game it turned out more like a 2d Black ops 7 then the classic strike force heroes games. This game is a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good for nostalgia, otherwise do not buy.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →literally just a better version of the browser game play a few matches of that first to decide if you like it then buy it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played this game with a big dumb smile on my face the entire time. It's very beautiful and very cheesy, and the core gameplay remains the same fun experience it was a decade ago.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ngl this game is just my childhood but upgraded like they didn’t ruin it, which is already rare as hell. gunplay still feels clean, sniper is still OP (as it should be), and the chaos is exactly how i remember it campaign actually has effort now too, voice acting and all that. not just random missions slapped together only thing is the grind can be kinda annoying sometimes and loot be trolling a bit but overall? yeah this ♥♥♥♥ hits. if you played SFH back then, just get it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played through the campaign as the Assassin class, got to the final boss, eventually concluded that it basically wasn't possible as Assassin, (In the second stage of the final boss you're pretty much constantly taking bullets no matter where on the extremely small map you go.) switched to my previously untouched Tank class for just the last level, and exploited the full heal you get every time you level up to win. Then I remembered that this was literally exactly what I did in 2012 on the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This Game is my childhood along side Raze, the story is alot more complete now and i cant wait for whats next, 10/10. also the Female version of the heroes are great the voice acting is very charming.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I Expected More I had a good feeling about this game since its made by the same developers as the original. But after finishing it and reaching 72% completion (the achievements are way too grindy), i honestly dont think this game is worth 10 dollars, let alone another 6 for deluxe edition. Visuals I like new upgraded maps, but the characters look lame. Why do they look so cartoonish and fat? They feel completely out of place. The only class that actually got good redesign is Tank class.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No updates, no bug fixes, no plans for the game's future, the gacha system is a joke. The game is truly dead because of irresponsible remasters like this; it really doesn't deserve it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The new Strike Force Heroes on Steam has lost much of the visual identity that made the originals so memorable. While the new maps are enjoyable, the abilities, characters, and guns no longer have the same feel—they’ve become too clean and polished, lacking the rugged charm of SFH 1 and 2. I highly recommend playing the original games online (Newgrounds is a safe option) to experience the fast-paced, gritty action and distinctive style that made the series special.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It feels lazy and poorly done. Genuinely a downgrade from the first and second games.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Remake so bad that Yao Ming almost cried after seeing what they've done to OG flash game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →1. Every time you level up your characters the prices go up in the item shop and slot machine, utterly stupid. 2. Every mission has randomized enemies even after replay, which means that during your last campaign missions where half your squad is dead story wise, you are left alone fighting a bunch of enemies outnumbering you. You can't even prepare properly with your loadouts and switchups, because every single session has a different enemy squad/classes, abilities and loadouts. 3. This…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This Game is great simullar to my childhood but the voice acting are a bit worse and its comedicized more then it was in the og
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Waiting to release SFH2 (MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE!)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Terrible game. I recommend playing the original flash version as it is superior. Weapons are obtained through random chance and gambling machines. The AI enemies have aimbot. It is not fun at all to play. If you read the other negative reviews, everything about it is true. Refunded the game in less than an hour. What a huge disappointment and joke
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An astonishing remake of the classic SFH. (RIP to flash) it takes all the best parts of the original. and mends them with mechanics of the 2nd and 3rd games. The series and story are great and I will keep playing. And Sky9 if you see this PLEASE make SFH 2 remake!! (Great on Deck with remapping) 10 out of 10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →played this free on google sites all thru middle school. I so happy i have adult money now and couldn't be happier
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I like this game a lot, the og was something I always went back to in my childhood. but I don't usually care to make reviews. the only reason I am is because I'm hoping maybe the devs will take notice to fix some issues, and the recent update in november makes me hopeful that they are paying attention. Anyway, the game runs well, it's just some odd game bugs i noticed that were issues previously and had come back. things like npc pathfinding issues on maps like lab or in the crash site during…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its been a long time since i last played the original strike force heroes so there might be some stuff i misremember. Still, this doesnt feel like the original at all and more like a cheap copy. First of all, I did not enjoy the equipment system at all, way too much rng and not rewarding at all. Story is meh with weird pacing but is still pretty similar to the original. The characters where alright but not really developed, would've liked to see more interaction between them. And the voice…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well personally the franchise equals to the word: nostalgia to me. Tbh Im merely buying this game as a tribute to the creators that made me a pleasantful memory for my childhood. Gameplay wise, it's outdated, and inherited nearly all the flaws in sfh3.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the best games from my childhood! It's straight up fun, not much to say. However I do miss the player character being an actual character instead being non existent till the end and sniper rifles being able to move the camera even further
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Like many people i grew up playing sfh as a kid. This remake of the game brings back so many childhood memories and I enjoyed every second I played. They made lots of stuff better/different but it still feels like the old sfh I remember. Thank you guys for this amazing game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After all these years, I can finally play my childhood memories...
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Omg that hurts. As young kid this one was one of the best flash games on the internet. Bought becous of nostalgia. Big mistake. Full of wanna be cool dialogs and wanna be funy jokes. Graphic are terrible and so is the opltimization. 3/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Porting the original flash game and adding more content to it would've been a better choice. Also it's riddled with bugs, some of which are game breaking.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →just a shell of a respectable game that it once was. the only reason im not refunding the game, is to thank the devs for creating the original, when i was a kid
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Felt like I was back in my Great Aunt's house playing this game for the first time in the best way physically possible. The soundtrack still bangs, the gameplay is smooth, provides a decent challenge at times, I still greatly enjoy this game and hope that the Sequel could only get here faster!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's good, I know. But some items satrted disappearing all of the sudden, and not mention some AI gets stuck on specific are. I prefer the old ones. Still, It's still good.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →only people who played the original flash game in school will appreciate this the most .... HOWEVER this remake is ♥♥♥♥♥♥ amazing and im glad they've made the game accessible for new people to try it since flash died some years ago and lastly i love how they added a new class to the game but locked it behind a cheap paywall but i dont think the og players like myself are gonna take as much interest in it as compared to a new player being exposed to this gold mine of a game and i almost forgot…

unlabelledView post →I grew up on SFH and Raze series, so seeing this was an excitement for me. It is a little bit different than the original flash game, but it does not bother me. The price is maybe too high, but that is not my decision.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →THIS NUKE IS GOING TO WIPE THAT VIRUS OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've loved this game since I was a kid, I remember playing the flash game on the old computer of my father and having an absolute blast. This steam adaptation brought back a lot of nostalgia for me. So I may be a little biased, but I absolutely love this game. It gets pretty hard later on and I can't bring myself to 100% it, because I'm just too bad, but all of what I've played has been a lot of fun. Can absolutely recommend to anyone who liked the flash game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As someone who grew up playing the original SFH Flash Games, this is a pretty solid Remaster all things considered. The music is well done and faithful to the original, the new cutscenes are well made and the gameplay is as solid as I remember it being within the original. The story in the Remaster is expands and improves upon the original story in many ways, even adding new sections to missions that weren't there in the original, really taking advantage of the fact the game is no longer held…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game of my childhood. I used to play this game when coming back home from junior school, those were the times ! ;)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is the pinnacle of childhood games and almost nothing with ever replace that feeling
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →They somehow made it worse than the flash games. It is genuinely more worth the effort to figure out how to play them than to play this slop.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →wow thanks for ruining my childhood by not play testing this ♥♥♥♥ ass game
