Signal Ops is a game that combines stealth game concepts, tactical FPS and strategy. Unfortunately this does not make a deep game that will appeal to everyone. Signal Ops in our character wakes up as a soldier with a hand hook that can remotely control a squad of agents through various espionage missions in order to defend and promote religious glory of Dark Father. From the beginning, there is evidence that the story will go beyond simply complete the missions. Unfortunately Signal Ops but does so in the worst possible way, making it too obvious.
Zack Zero (ZZ) is a 2.5D platformer with a slight ‘metroidvania’ twist – upgradeable power suit, 2D puzzle solving, and difficult boss fights. Although that sounds insanely cool on paper, it’s infuriatingly frustrating in practise - not to mention glitchy.
