  Although brutally difficult due to poor game design choices, like not giving you enough health packs, or not adding any hit stun to your bullets, The Stalin Subway: Red Veil was oddly a very entertaining game for me. This was due to the satisfying gunplay, charming locales, and my drive to overcome the pretty unfair challenge the game offered on only the normal difficulty level. Note I may be slightly biased since I played this one right after the completely abysmal Conflict: Denied Ops, and really anything could've seemed good in comparison to that game. I also do really enjoy cover based shooters with a low ttk and no health regeneration since they encourage you to actually stay in cover, only popping out for quick shots and ducking back immediately, which is how things would work in a real firefight. The multiplayer in Red Veil is a lot of fun too, in spite of the fact there's only 3 maps which are all lifted straight from the campaign. It's LAN only as far as I can tell, so you'll have to use tunneling software like Radmin to play it online. The game goes on sale for less than a dollar, and it easily deserves picking up for that.

  This is a mixed-bag game. I'm not joking, it really is. I think this could be Dark Souls in FPS form. First of all, the voice acting, cutscenes, dialouge, and the PLOT are crap. Absolutely not a buy if you want any of these in a game. The level design? It's a joke. You will constantly find yourself lost in what SHOULD be an easy navigation, with some levels worse than others. Then there are turret sections... My GOD! Yeah, lets make a game where the point is realism and lets make you stand still and have nearly every enemy shoot at you at ONCE. You will probably die more often here than at any other point in the game (And you still die a lot regardless). However, even for 2006, the graphics and textures are pretty good (thoguh the grenade explosions NEED to change). The physics are floaty for grenades, but all other weapons deal accurate damage. The gameplay is difficult, sure, but it is this difficulty that makes it fun for some. The gameplay is argueably this games saving grace. If you aren't a fan of turret sections, bouncy physics, crashing to desktop, or terrible story, then don't get this game. If not, then buy it so you can play it for gameplay stuff.

  The Stalin Subway: Red Veil is an interesting game and if you want to waste $2.39 (it was on sale) like I did, then you should go ahead and get it. Know though, that it is a waste of money and there are better games. For instance, Deadly Premonition is $2.49 at the time of writing, and it is a hundred times better for only ten cents more. Pros: -Average FPS -Sound quality isn't terrible -Graphics get the job done -Unique-ish maps and levels -Has its funny moments which lighten up the mood -Main character sounds sexual when she dies, if you are into that kind of stuff Cons: -Bad voice acting -Few weapon choices -All rifles share the same ammunition, but you can only collect the ammunition if you have that specific gun equiped. (EG: if you have an AK, and there are two SMGs on the ground, to collect the most ammo you should drop your AK and collect the ammo, then pick the AK back up.) -Non-intuitive level design - getting stuck is frequent -Enemies always know where you are at all times, and will fire immediately at you when you turn a corner -Too hard, even on easy -No health reset across levels -Resets your guns after the car mission for no reason -Russians carry an American Browning handgun (Why?) -Story is very difficult to follow

  What could be more fun than slaughtering Stalin's henchmen? Turns out ANYTHING. Don't buy this game. Its just a bad game. Ok you want specifics? Totally unbalanced gameplay, endless and repetitive maps, shit graphics, and absurdly bad voice. You will die one million times and yet you will not attain any higher level of skill at this game. There is no getting "good" there is no trick to this game. Nothing you can use to improve your gameplay. Its just endless fast saving and reloading.

  This game is kind of a guilty pleasure for me. I just completed it on normal difficulty and I honestly can't believe that it got released with all the problems the game mechanics have. Everything you can possibly imagine that could be wrong with a first person shooter is done in this game. There is a rail section where you are in the back seat of a vehicle being shot at with no way to dodge or duck. If you start the mission with anything below 100% health, (meaning you have to complete the previous mission with 100% health) than you might as well reload an older save file and start from a previous mission. There is a sewer level where the water rises, but if you stay underwater too long, you lose health. The problem is that the damage taken for lack of oxygen while being under water is accumulative, meaning that if you begin losing health after being underwater for 10 seconds, and you emerge for air after 9 seconds, going back under the water (which is required) will start to hurt you after being submerged for only 1 second. The game finally concludes with what I can only describe as one of the worst escort missions in FPS history. The only good thing I can think to say is that there were no timed missions. Well, the game's not all bad. Let's talk about what they did right. First, the game is short, (a good thing in this case). Second, there is a very convenient quick save and quick load feature, so no check point system. The down side to that is that you will be using the quick save/load feature constantly; sometimes over a dozen times just to get past one corner where soldiers are waiting to ambush you. There is absolutely no skill involved in this game what-so-ever. It is simply a matter of getting past an area, gaining a little bit of advancement, quicksaving, and repeating as you gradually progress little by little. The graphics, while terrible by today's standards and not very good for the standards of its release date, do a very effective job in recreating an oppressive, post-war soviet atmosphere. The game attempted to be accurate by implementing a critical hit system, which means that you can have 100% health, but one bullet in the right spot, (heart, head, ect.) can take it down to almost 0%. And trust me, there is an ocean of bullets flying at you. You'll find that this system works in your favor also as using your sniper weapon, (the most crucial firearm in the game) and zooming in for headshots is the most effective way to kill your enemies. It's a trial and error system that will have you dying A LOT! So why am I recommending this game? One reason: The price. I got this game for two dollars on sale. For that price it was worth it. Do not pay a dollar more for this game. Deep inside of me, there is a perverse, masochistic streak that takes some sick pleasure in an occasional bad game, much like many people find watching a campy, low-budget movie entertaining. Also, I promise you will enjoy the cutscenes. Trust me on this. They are the most poorly translated, horrendously voice-acted cutscenes you will ever see in your life time. I enjoyed them immensely. If you can find this game for a dollar or two on sale, and you have nothing better to do, give it a try.

  (ignore time on file - this game isn't Steam integrated and I played it by launching its executable directly) This has to be one of the most infuriating games I've ever played. If it was less sadistic it'd just be a mediocre shooter. As it stands it's entertaining to play if you're a glutton for punishment and want the challenge of seeing the game to completion. I cannot say I recommend it, but it can be enjoyed in a weird way. There are certainly a lot worse games you can get on Steam for 74 cents (what this was on sale for). The main difficulty in this game comes from its damage model. On Normal difficulty, a headshot is an instant kill, a body shot takes about 2-5 hits depending on the weapon, then limbs and finally hands/feet do less. This also applies to you, so you will be killed within seconds or instantly if some of the enemies firing machine guns at you from far away get a lucky headshot. Something that's really neat is that there are ricochets, but in practice this just means the enemies mindlessly emptying their 72-round machine guns can kill you when you're behind cover near ricochet-able walls. Another challenge in the game is aiming. The enemies reflexes are amazing and they will start firing before you can get out of cover enough to aim. Occasionally you can angle yourself in such a way that you can fire at their limbs without being seen, and you need to take these opportunities when you can. You cannot use the iron sights on your weapons so long-range combat is difficult even with a rifle. You just have to aim your crosshair for center mass and hope for the best. The enemy AI is, well... non-existent. They run from their spawn positions, if scripted to do so, and then stand in place immediately firing at you when you come into sight, emptying their magazine. There is rarely the opportunity to sneak up on an enemy from the side or behind, so you will have to quickly duck out from cover as they reload and get a few shots off hoping you don't get hit. Defeated enemies will randomly drop first aid kits which restore 10 of your 100HP. Getting shot once can take anywhere from 5-25 so it's very difficult, but necessary to take down most enemies without taking damage. Quick save/load abuse is mandatory. Depending on how lucky you are with combat, the game is about 4-6 hours long. The levels mostly involve close-quarters combat with a bit of obstacles like rooftop ledges or vents (aka ricochet 'heaven'). The game is cruel, so it will sometimes spawn enemies behind you after passing certain points in the levels. There is one vehicle segment and the last two levels in the game are escort missions. These are by far the least enjoyable in the game. The vehicle level is buggy beyond belief http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=370005033 It starts off by you being driven in front of a vehicle with four machine-gun toting enemies. Half of the time they will kill you before you can even get your crosshair over them. The car then stops in a position where two of the enemies are outside of you aiming range, so you have to blow up their vehicle by emptying two AK clips into it. It is a matter of luck if you can do this before the two enemies kill you. Then comes the bugginess... all of the other vehicles in the level seem to have about a 25% chance of spawning correctly. You will then be chased by a rolling tire, which is invulnerable and will crash into your vehicle causing it to explode. If you quick-save and then quick-load multiple times, your game will either crash or sometimes a black car will spawn instead (albeit missing a tire) and you can kill the vehicle before it crashes into you. Thankfully the other invulnerable tires in the level will not cause your vehicle to explode and the level will end. If you should be unlucky enough for a further two vehicles to spawn correctly, there will be eight enemies which you cannot aim at firing at you and killing you. This time you will want to quick-save and quick-load to prevent those from spawning. Apart from the vehicle mission, the game is playable. The escort mission is like a normal level except you have a slow, wounded guy following you. The enemies ignore him and he stays out of the way of their fire, which is nice, BUT every few minutes the game spawns an enemy soldier close to him that runs up to him and empties his machine gun into him. So while you're worried about saving your own skin, cowardly ducking behind cover with an onslaught of four machine guns firing at you, you also have to babysit. On a lighter note, the voice acting is hilariously bad and you occasionally catch soldiers having conversations about you before you engage them. It's a bad game no doubt, but I came in with low expectations and got some enjoyment from it.
