It puts you in the mindset of a movie hitman, despite the game’s supernatural trappings. This sounds like I’m making it out to be a fast-paced game, and it certainly can be if you know what you’re doing, but like Hotline Miami, you die in one hit from anything, which requires a mixture of recklessness and precision in order to get the best scores. What happens if you play Deadbolt correctly. The smarter thing to do would be to turn into smoke and travel through the vents (this never gets old by the way) and kill the power for a few minutes by landing on the roof, then using the darkness and confusion to wipe out a bunch of bloodsuckers. You could theoretically knock on the front door and just blast whoever’s in the way, but that could lead to trouble, as the Reaper dies in one hit from just about anything. One level in the middle section sees you infiltrating a club filled with uber-tall vampires.
#Deadbolt game how to
Side weapons are things like a Derringer, or a hammer, which can be thrown to lethal effect.Įach level opens with you choosing that equipment from the trunk of your car, in what feels like an opening shot to an action movie, and from there you decide how to approach the situation. Main ones range from things like a silenced shotgun Anton Chigurh would be proud of (it’s my weapon of choice) to a silenced SMG and even a scythe if you so choose. You’re able to choose a main weapon and a side weapon to enter each level with. Playing as the Reaper, you’re able to approach each new stage from a variety of angles, and the smart level design encourages experimentation and rewards creative thinking. This is essentially a horror painted, side-scrolling version of Hotline Miami, and it lives up to that in most regards. The story tries to be mysterious but comes off as underwritten, but it does provide a good enough excuse to hang the game’s fantastic gameplay on.
It’s unknown who the fireplace is, or what the end goal for the Reapers is. They then go there, dispatch everyone, and repeat the process. It’s unknown what the Reaper do in their downtime because the only thing you see them do is take instructions from a fireplace regarding where they need to go and who they need to kill. You play as a Reaper, who isn’t necessarily the Reaper, in a horror-themed world where supernatural gangs run amok. Coming out in 2016, Deadbolt is a different beast entirely, and displays creativity that I hope Hopoo continues in the future. I’m explaining all this so I can accurately convey how different the game they released between those two titles is from their other work. Both are best enjoyed with friends, but are fun and very replayable on their own. The first one was a very fun side-scroller and the second is a fully-fledged third-person shooter.
#Deadbolt game series
Hopoo Games are well known for their rather great action-platformer series Risk of Rain, rogue-likes where the goal is to gather as many stat-buffing items as possible before confronting the final boss.
