The number of games licensed for cinema has broken all records. This can be explained by both the lack of original stories and the desire to make money from the old brand.
Yes, really on the old one - the first film about the Scar Man (the nickname of the famous mafioso Al Capone) was released more than 70 years ago ...
However, this project is not based on the 1932 tape, but on the 1983 remake with Al Pacino in the title role. The plot of the game continues the events of the film, with only one difference - the protagonist Tony Montana does not die, but makes a criminal career again. This is not to say that the story was particularly rich in unexpected twists, but still it is quite interesting. The twists and turns of the plot are revealed in the videos on the game engine, and here the main character literally attracts our attention - he is drawn, animated and voiced simply magnificently. Unfortunately, we will not hear the voice of Al Pacino, but the elderly actor assisted the authors of the project.
The game world looks very ambiguous. It seems that the developers did not have enough time and / or money to create a full-fledged city. Many areas are connected by only one road, all other routes play a purely decorative role. The only thing that pleases me is the opportunity to buy real estate.
The combat component is very entertaining. A convenient auto-aiming system works, and the character can use exterior elements as a cover, shoot from behind a door jamb, etc. Before sending the "spiteful critic" to the Land of the Eternal Hunt, he is allowed to scold him and even recall a couple of hot facts from his biography mommies.
And the game also has a scale with the unambiguous name "Balls", it shows ... no, not what you thought, in fact, here we see how many points accumulated to enable the "Rage" mode (the local analogue of "slo-mo "). They are awarded for exquisite killing of opponents, extreme car driving, etc.
You know, Scarface isn't the worst way to while away a few winter evenings.
