Bloodbath Kavkaz : Notline Miami (Stilted Combat, Frustrating Gameplay, Numerous Glitches)
Channel: LIFE RPG
Date: 08/03/2016

Bloodbath Kavkaz is a lackluster attempt at the top-down brawling mayhem that was Hotline Miami. Does it compare? No. Not at all. The music, graphics, and gameplay are all under the par when compared to Dennaton's brutal masterpiece.

Does this make Bloodbath Kavkaz a bad game? In a lot of senses, it is. But there is a glimmer of a good game just begging to get out. Of course, that could just be the brutalized corpse of Hotline Miami with a dirty sock stuffed in its mouth. BLOODBATH KAVKAZ!!

Jump into the atmosphere of Moscow night and insane combat. Breathtaking storyline and stale shawarma – that is what awaits you in Bloodbath Kavkaz.

Bloodbath Kavkaz is an action-packed Top-Down Action based around russian culture, telling the story of Caucasian ex-killer named Shamil Rakhmanov. After a car crash Shamil gets in the hands of a mysterious stranger, who offers him a deal he can't refuse. Shamil must find and kill the leader of Moscow criminal syndicate, who is called Jafar, before the sunrise, or else he will die. Being desperate, Shamil starts his blood-filled way into the depths of Moscow night, where he will meet all the horrors of russian modern culture and solve the great conspiracy. 
Violent shootouts, slo-mo, thrilling non-linear story and stale shawarma – all of that await you in Bloodbath Kavkaz. Drink yazhka, break doors down, kill the unfaithful, nothing stops you in that game.

First of all, graphics are horrible. I think that devs make sprites in Paint. Game mechanics aren't comfortable. Hotline Miami was much better. Storyline is awfully dumb, it's all about russian memes and videobloggers. Boring. -Hyperchaotic

Terrible game, terrible controls, scary price ($7.49 at full). I'm just glad I got this in a bundle and it had trading cards. When my 2+ hours is done, and I have all of my cards, this will be promptly removed from my hard drive and Hotline Miami will be played to flush out the ♥♥♥♥ that is ingrained in my mind. -Robdaine

I'd rather have a cactus in my ♥♥♥, and alcohol poisoning than play this poorly made Hotline Miami Ripoff.

The graphics are terrible (Movement especially) movement is buggy, and clippy. The music is repetitive, and tries to be like the Hotline Miami soundtrack (But miserably fails) The native language is Russian, and there are ways to get around that, so I really couldn't care less. But the translations are probably done in bing (Which explains how terribly translated it is)

I rate this game 1/100. The 1 is because I bought this in a mystery bag for ten cents, and can sell the cards for more than I paid. -Gervant of Riverside

Hotline Miami rip-off, but clunkier, without any meaningful substance and filled with low-grade memes. 
And on top of that, it is advertised with features that aren't even remotely present in the game. I'm talking about sandbox mode, survival mode, multiplayer and level editor. They are all put in Extras menu and labeled as "Coming soon". Which, I presume, basically means "Coming never, haha, screw you" — after Rick Roll intro it definitely feels that way. -zetsuboushita

For those curious, the game plays like hotline miami... sorta. There is no language specifiv dialogue (i speak english and spanish) to be found in the story itself, and so maybe if i spoke russian it would make me laugh alot more, but i somehow doubt that. If anyone biligual can let me know if its funny, i'm genuinely interested. Don't buy this out of curiosity, there are too many bugs, and it plays like an unfinished game, because it is one.

I bought this when i was drunk to have mindless hotline miami ripoff fun. I am a huge neo-80's nerd, and inebriated me was honestly excited to play a funny looking clone of my favorite game. This ♥♥♥♥ is so bad though, the ♥♥♥♥. I can't even get past the first scene without getting bored. It's very sluggish, buggy, etc, etc. I have a mid level laptop, and i have never had trouble running The Forest, Rust, CounterStrike and other games, so you can imagine my confusing when the frame rate dropped dring a ♥♥♥♥ing isometric MS paint looking shooter. There is not any good reason this game should play so poorley. I know i was wasted, and this probably contributed to my lack of fun and understanding. But if you still feel compelled to buy this game, just know that it is not "open world" it has no "level editor" and the game lied to make it seem like it was worth buying. That's pathetic and you should not support developers who push out this half ♥♥♥♥♥ shit. -JohnStuartChill
