High Hell - Review


High Hell is a very short arcade shooter that's reminiscent of Hotline Miami in a FPS settings with a rather unique artstyle to it.

Gameplay is super basic with super basic objectives. Not much of a story other than trying to kill off all the enemies and following the objective as fast as possible. This game is pretty good at getting to the point of the gameplay because that's simply what this game is. It's an arcade shooter nothing more, nothing less.

There's only 20 levels and I already beaten this game. Took me 4 hours.

Does the game suck? Far from it. Can it get boring? Yes, it can be at times. The only longevity that you'll get from this game is the speedrunning aspects. There is also a leaderboard feature for this as well. If I had to point out to a group of people to play this game I would tell people who are into high scores and speed running aficionados.

At the same time, the price is right honestly. For 10 buckaroos it's not bad. I'm really on the fence at this point but the game delivered what it offered but there's nothing else to really get into in this game.

But personally? It just didn't really get my attention as much. It's good, but not great either, didn't suck. I have already forgotten this game. But for others they may like this game.

Pros:
+Great unique artstyle
+Leaderboards
+Core gameplay is good
+Cheap, 10 US dollars
+Challenging
+Speedrunner friendly

Cons:
-Short game
-Lacks content

3/5.

My Top Ten Favorite Games of 2017

10.  Comedy Night (PC) Comedy Night is a game I almost didn't recommend because it felt more like a heavily relied social game experiment. You can sing, debate, and obviously make some jokes to spit on the mic with other users. Game exploded at launch and the developer is highly active on the game. Great to fucking around with people and just socialize in. On top of that it's cheap. 9.  Sky Rogue  (PC) Sky Rogue is your basic flight sim arcade game however has some very attractive low-poly visuals and procedurally generated missions. On top of that, has Steam Workshop to download other peoples aircrafts. I've downloaded Raiden aircrafts to the X-Wing. Great replay value at a decent price. Just got out of Early Access on Steam too. 8.  Iron Crypticle  (PC) A simple arcade game that's reminiscent of Robotron and Smash TV. You're an armored hero going through procedurally generated dungeons destroying an onslaught of baddie. The visuals ...
