2017 has had a huge amount of games that are long, intense and deeply affecting. And that’s wonderful. But sometimes you just need a blissfully simple game. Redeemer is exactly that. A simple game that is gleefully brutal with satisfying combat and a silly 80s action movie plot. Redeemer is straight-forward but a lot of fun.
Richy takes a look at the top down brawler - Redeemer on PC
In Redeemer you play as the soldier for hire turned monk, Vasily. He was once one of their best assassins, yet when they tried to force cybernetic enhancements on their soldiers, he escaped to a remote Buddhist temple to try and find peace. This peace is short-lived when the same company invades his new home, seeking a secret even Vasily didn't know about. His life is once again in ruins and he must now destroy these invasive soldiers by any means necessary to put a stop to their true intentions.
"In Redeemer you play as the soldier for hire turned monk"
I don't know why, but I couldn't help myself to think about the monk from "Diablo" when I read that :P
OnlySP: "Redeemer is best as an unapologetic, old-school isometric brawler."
