Red Lake

I played about 10 minutes and that's more than enough to go through the problems in this game. First, there's basically no menu. There's a start game, "about us", and exit. Then you get in game. Every step you take you wobble violently side to side, worse when sprinting, and I'm pretty sure it could give certain people splitting headaches. Also, the "stamina" is almost nonexistent --- the guy is out of breath...

To put it simple, Red Lake is the spiritual successor of The Slaughtering Grounds, but in his own way... With six chapters that offer some varieties Red Lake could be an interesting game to play but sadly that's not the case since the game also comes with a variety of bugs and issues. First of all, the enemies are badly designed and poorly animated. Also, the interior environments need lot of works. The only thing...

Wow...this game was amazingly bad. First of all the animations of the dogs you first encounter are bad. I shot one, and his corpse did somersaults at my feet. In a wacky game like goat simulator that may be acceptable, but not here. When you die you respawn at a checkpoint, but the ammo you had does not respawn with you, so if you run out of bullets dying will not bring them back. There were plenty of times that the...

I will not mince words: Red Lake is a poorly made game. I have long held the opinion that the worst sin a video game can commit is to be mediocre. I submit that Red Lake is not merely a bad game. It is an interesting bad game. I was given this game by a member of a streaming community I briefly engaged with and I am eternally glad they did. I enjoyed every inebriated moment I streamed this game. It is my hope that...

Red Lake is a self-described, "..horror shooter with elements of quest." That doesn't seem like too great of a sign. The game doesn't particularly excel in horror, shooter, or elements of quest. The scares are pretty easy to see coming and usually just involve a loud distorted noise to catch you off guard. I mean, the same could be said to describe most modern "horror" games, but whatever. I'm not fond of it in...

First of all, I would like to point out that there is no way you can possibly take this game seriously. That being said, the following review addresses the game as a joke it is. My friend got this... unholy masterpiece for me so that we all could have some fun listening to the entrancing stories told by Russkij Ivan (I assume that's the protagonist's name). Well, we did get a few laughs from that, but... It gets...
