Shoot The Wall

Are you curious? A bit nosy? Just don't like to be left out of things? Well then, you're going to have to shoot your way through that wall to find out what's behind it and where those mysterious voices are coming from. Who is telling you not to shoot the wall? To be honest, telling someone not to do something is encouragement enough to do it, plus it would be a short and boring game if you didn't. There's a story mode, sandbox mode, and a time trial mode with leader board to work through, and a selection of weapons and upgrades to help destroy the wall faster. It's funny how the simplest of things can prove to be so entertaining. Maybe, you like cleaning games, or clicking items endlessly, and now you can shoot at a wall to satisfy your destructive needs. This game probably will appeal to those that like repetition but there is more to this game than just mindless shooting. It actually has a genuinely funny story with tongue in cheek humour that immediately declares that this game is going to be silly and entertaining. The mechanics of the game are sound too with satisfying gun sounds and a feeling of destruction as those damage counters fly out towards you. Having five different weapons with upgrades is nice and there's a feeling of progression as you start off slowly with your pathetic pistol and eventually upgrade to a submachine gun providing maximum carnage. Buried within the wall are gold bricks which when shot provide money for you to spend on weapons and upgrades in the shop, and green bricks which provide ammo drops. Sometimes, it is prudent to stop the Rambo in you and pick out these blocks with controlled bursts, otherwise you could miss them. The ammo blocks are particularly useful because they replenish some of your ammo and stop you having to walk all the way back to the start where the shop is. The walls can be quite thick and long, commonly taking at least fifteen minutes to get through, and as you progress you have to find the correct route, because there are dead ends. This means going back to the start is a pain and I did wonder whether it would be better if the shop could be accessed on the fly, but as I became more selective with my aiming, I didn't have to return to the shop at all. The story mode provides four walls which get progressively larger and more difficult to get through but you won't have any problems actually getting through. The time trial mode provides a challenge if you want to compete on the leader board and see how fast you can do it, but otherwise it is very relaxed and you can take as much time as you want. The story mode takes around two hours to complete. My PC did get very hot when playing this game and frame rates were much higher than my refresh rate so options to cap that would be appreciated but other than that there were no bugs or issues. [h1]Final Thoughts[/h1] [quote][h2][b] Shoot the Wall [/b] is a fun and entertaining casual shooter that will keep you entertained for a couple of hours. It has an amusing storyline which motivates you to get through that wall, if you needed any encouragement, and satisfying gun mechanics that feel destructive. Maybe, there's some extra play time in the time trial mode, if you enjoy competing on leader boards, but the sandbox mode was very basic and a little disappointing, but there's enough here in the story mode to warrant a purchase.
