Unusual Antagonist Game with Surprising Replayability
1 November 2023
I usually steer clear of games that cast you as the antagonist, like GTA V and Red Dead Redemption, but this one proved to be an exception. The exaggerated humor and the somewhat lacking police response make it feel like you're up against bots, which takes away the moral dilemma found in other games.

However, what sets this game apart is its exceptional planning aspect and mission design. The randomness of the levels offer remarkable replayability. The wide selection of weapons and attachments further enhances this, keeping the game always on your toes and fresh.

The multiplayer experience, featuring cross-playability between Steam and Epic Games, adds to its appeal, especially given the game's past availability on Epic Games for free. The lore ties everything together, giving depth and motivation to both contractors and heisters. It's a captivating blend of planning and gameplay elements that's worth a try, even for those who typically shy away from playing as the "bad guy."
