Are you ready to go A.W.O.L.?
Step into the combat boots of Dwayne Allen, a recently discharged special forces soldier, as he joins his former squad mates on their hunt for their missing C.O.
A.W.O.L. is a first-person, mil-spec shooter developed using the Build engine (Duke Nukem 3D, Ion Fury).
Features
- Command your squad – A.W.O.L. features three A.I. team mates with unique behaviors to support Allen in combat.
- Intelligent enemies – to bring the retro FPS forward in time, A.W.O.L. features sophisticated enemy A.I. for a more modern challenge. Enemies will take cover, hide, ambush, and work together to try and take your team out.
- No procedural generation – 9 uniquely-crafted levels for a tailored, bespoke experience!
- Hand-drawn heroes – Bespoke sprite and texture art with serious retro FPS style!
- Pick your playstyle – Players will be able to choose from “action-movie” style play, or amp up the challenging with more realistic combat modes!

Wish there were more games like this. Something about the retro look combined with the military theme just feels right. Gun play is crisp and the damage effects give you that good chunky feeling.
And its completely free.
Could not recommend this enough.

If you're into Build engine games and old-timey war comics like the 'Nam and 70s Punisher you will love it.
And it's free.

very good art style lovely graphics. At first you may be inclined to just run and gun like a cod game, but AWOL encourages a more tactical approach and thoughtful movement. Very nice game to unwind with. IMO the squad and team mate system feels arbitrary and kinda pointless. (The game is kinda jank sometimes though)

Very good free shooter that you can run on a Potato PC since it is on a Potato engine.

It's a pretty cool game. Like the tactical side from it. You don't see this that much in, let's say boomer shooters. Tho i'm not too big of a fan of a squad behind me, they just seem like an excessive part for the game. But overall a good fun shooter. Not bad.

It's really cool what they did in the build engine. A more tactical shooter in the engine is dope, and I'm glad people are still experimenting with it since it was not used enough in my opinion, but this one aint really for me. Also experienced a bug frequently where enemies would become detached from their sprite I think. I should shoot at the sprite and that wasn't where their actually entity was I think. I also just died to an invisible enemy.

its a 7/10 game
positves:
nice animations, good controls, uniqe enemies and a decent story
negatives:
most of these maps arn't bad but they tent to get confusing at times, there are some bugs that need fixing like the one shotgun not reloading for some reason, maybe a bit to short for this game, the squad ai is not as bright to be used for most maps on this game 'they like to fall of and run twords enemies with low health',
: this is a once and a quick play of this game its fun would likly play again.
