This game is like if H. P. Lovecraft forced old DOOM and new DOOM to have unprotected sex while borderlands filmed the whole thing, and honestly I'm here for it.

Serious Sam meets Lovecraft. Lots and lots of strafing, running, gunning, and dodging all kinds of projectiles. Enemies are straight out of a Lovecraft novel, scary looking in all their 2D bitmap glory. Plenty of guns are to be had with lots upgrades to both the weapons themselves and enhanced skill sets to black/white magic capabilities.
Graphics:
3D with lots of 2D bitmaps splashed around for detail. Enemies are grotesque in all their bitmap glory. Very retro. Think Doom in the early 90's.
Sound/Music:
Scary. The tempo for the music increased when enemies are nearby. Sound from the enemies are also very unsettling.
Overall, I highly recommend the game to all FPS shooters out there, especially those looking for a retro experience.

Forgive me Father takes a lot from old 90s First Person Shooters, combining its elements with interesting graphical approach. As such:
Pros:
- Atmosphere,
- The 90s FPS feel,
-Variety of weapons,
- 2 playable characters, each has its own set of skills that are possible to upgrade,
- Variety of interesting enemies,
- Great levels.
Cons:
- If you did not get used to playing games like these, some thing could be tedious and the game can at moments seem unforgiving
Overall: 8.8/10

Great music, lovely art, fun, fast gameplay. All weapons, except knife, felt pretty useful throughout my playthrough - fun range of hitscan and projectiles. Some really nice touches showed the care that the devs put in, I thought the way enemy weak points vary was especially nice.
In terms of pacing the game wasn't perfect, it dragged on a little bit during the latter levels where a few chapters didn't feel like they introduced much meaningful and fun novelty, nor fresh feeling challenges. I would've been happy with a shorter mid/late section. Saying that, none of it felt bad, and I enjoyed the final chapter.

Based on the trailer, when I loaded this up I was not expecting to enjoy it. However, I found it was a much better game than I anticipated.
I liked that there was a skill tree to customize your character, and two characters to choose from.
In someone else's review, they recommended spending your skill points in a way that ensures a diversity of ammo pools (some versions of weapons use the same ammo pool as others). I found this was good advice. I hope they changed that for the sequel.
Overall, a pleasant surprise.

Any true boomer shooter connoisseur knows that the most defining feature of a game is its shotgun, and this game has one of the best shotguns ever in my opinion.
PS ignore the atrocious voice acting by the female protagonist. Some people theorize that it's intentional for story-related reasons.
