  • Dark, serious atmosphere
  • Action-packed real-time combat
  • Challenging difficulty

A brutal old-school shooter that starts in the trenches of World War I and descends into an occult hellscape of vampires, demons and zombies. Its appeal lies in mixing period firearms, melee and dark magic with a combo system, in the spirit of Painkiller but with noticeable budget roughness.
