This is not what you would expect from Death to Spies

I remember anticipating Death to Spies 3 for so long. Not many people had even heard of the first few games. I remember seeing the alpha footage trailer, and then the game went off the radar.

Fast forward almost two years later, and I accidentally happen upon Alekhine's Gun: the new title for Death to Spies 3! I was so excited, I thought it had been canceled.

"This is gonna be a rival to Hitman!" I said.

But then I received the game in the mail. It all went downhill from there.

You literally cannot see. The lighting is absolutely terrible. Nothing you adjust on your TV will fix it. I have no idea where I'm going half the time. Also, there's no way to adjust display settings on the in-game menu.

The AI is something you would see in a 90's game. They forget any wrongdoing they witnessed you committing after you go into a different room and close the door.

The controls are TERRIBLE. Nothing about them is smooth or logical.

There are quite a few buildings in what I've played of the game so far that are just inaccessible, but completed on the outside, save for a boarded-up set of doors.

The game is latent with proof that the developers lacked the time and funding to release a polished final product. I feel bad for them, because those who've played their previous games can see what they've achieved in the past.

I figure it couldn't be as bad as people said. Some people complain about how clunky and unfinished Thief: Deadly Shadows was, and I absolutely loved that game!

This is not case with Alekhine's Gun. The one star rating is not me just being mad and overly dramatic. It's honesty; the game is genuinely unplayable.Read full review

clunky and just not worth wasting your time

I love these types of games...I will give any game a chance it doesn't have to be a one of those big release ...high production games for me to like it...some of my favorite games are from smaller companies...a good game is a good game...this just is not one of them...there is nothing smooth at all in this game...very disappointing i don't even think an update can save it.... so broken in every wayRead full review
