Spooky scary monsters, and the guns to kill them
Forgive Me Father is a retro horror FPS but with a great graphical style and a lot of interesting enemies. At first, it seems like a typical zombie shooter but after headshoting one of the zombies, they took the head they were carrying and placed it on them, and kept coming. There are a lot of fresh ideas throughout this game. Even something as weak as a “Foggy area” works well here, and gets the blood pumping.
On the other hand, After seeing four different enemies, the game just kept throwing them at me over and over. There’s probably more but it was often similar. The story is there to have some collectibles to find, but this is much more on the combat. There’s also not much horror here, though it does have a horror aesthetic, you should have enough ammo to just tear through enemies rather than being afraid of some terror.
Pick this up if you like retro FPSes. This is well-designed, and the music is awesome. The gameplay is fast-paced, and I had a blast. There is even leveling with skill points which aren’t needed but also didn’t upset me as much as I expected. However, it’s not that scary, to the point where I could easily come back and plunk down even more hours into the game.
