Tradeoff: An extremely brief campaign and rudimentary shooter mechanics leave very little depth or replay value once the novelty wears off.
What it does best
A meme-fueled conspiracy satire built around Alex Jones’ greatest hits
Competent retro pixel art gives the absurdity a recognizable arcade shape
What might put you off
Provocative Alex Jones conspiracy humor
Very short and overpriced
