### 4/5 — Crashing

*2026-06-14, version 1.1.15*

I played the demo and it worked fine but when I bought the full game on chapter 4 when you get into the room with loads of doors and save a hostage the game crashes 
The game is great but I am disappointed that I can’t even play through one level that I paid for

### 4/5 — Amazing game, needs polish

*2026-01-16, version 1.1.15*

One of my favorite games on mobile. The atmosphere, story, music, and combat are incredible, and the slow-motion gunplay feels great on iPhone.
There are some technical issues that break immersion at times. The trench coat sometimes becomes invisible, body parts can glitch or disappear, and controller support has occasional input problems. None of these ruin the game, but they definitely stand out.
Overall, an amazing experience that would easily be a 5-star game with a bit more polish. I really hope these bugs get fixed because this game truly deserves it.

### 4/5 — Cutscenes buggy

*2026-01-03, version 1.1.15*

In the cutscene the character does not load fully it just show his body with no arms 😭

### 5/5 — Get this game now!!!!!

*2025-10-27, version 1.1.15*

So this game is about a man who married a vampire and she starts to bring this place called elsewhere to the mortal realm and you shoot vampires and a lot of over things but there is cussing but the storyline is really good (message to the developers can you guys please make it so it easier to see it really hard with the style)

### 5/5 — Мак Пейн на минималках

*2025-10-25*

Прикольная игруха в стиле Макс Пейна, удобно играть на мобиле. Саундтрек вообще БОМБА!

**Developer response:** Спасибо за замечательный отзыв, рад, что вам всё нравится.

### 5/5 — Pongan idioma en español

*2025-10-25, version 1.1.15*

Muy buen juego, solo falta el idioma en español 🙏🙏🙏

### 5/5 — Very thought out, and well-made game!

*2025-10-14, version 1.1.15*

I really enjoy it, it runs good and it’s quite entertaining, the music is so good, 5 stars

### 5/5 — Вкусно

*2025-10-10*

По сути и по вкусу. Шизонуарная история любви про дробовики, таблетки и вампиров, которой версии для Apple TV и 60 фпс сильно не хватает. В целом отличный порт.

### 5/5 — Pongan el idioma en español

*2025-10-07, version 1.1.15*

Muy buen juego, solo falta el idioma en español 🙏🙏🙏

### 5/5 — Q JOGO BOM

### 5/5 — Feedback

*2025-09-10, version 1.1.15*

Hey I found this gem while looking for other games it’s great I ended up buying it and got to chapter four before it’s started lagging really bad from chapter four and up,it’s just keeps lagging mad crazy

### 5/5 — Very awesome

*2025-09-01, version 1.1.15*

Max Payne style game I just wish the fog effects were nefred for older devices aha it tanks the performance really bad on my iPad 9th gen

### 5/5 — Constantine Max Payne

*2025-08-31, version 1.1.15*

Yeah, those three words pretty much sum it up, it’s got a cozy lo-fi vibe, think ps1/ps2 era. Great soundtrack to boast as well!

### 5/5 — i love it

*2025-08-28, version 1.1.15*

that is cool! u took best of [other old slow mo game] with a cool setting! i like how u adapt all of that - not a parody. controls feels unfinished, so do main character visual- but it doesn’t change design and lore and theme. visuals can be upgraded to new devices as well. but overall it is game made by ppl who love Max and understand why he was so beloved and successful! good job keep going!)))

### 5/5 — Шикарно

*2025-08-25*

Замечательная пародия на Max Payne, где накрозависимый охотник на вампиров выясняет отношения со своей бывшей, вампиршей. Очень круто!

### 5/5 — 中文

max payan ki copy hai bc

**Developer response:** lol bruh

### 1/5 — Tutorial

*2025-09-13, version 1.1.15*

I watched someone play this and it looked and sounded awesome. Downloaded on my phone and started the tutorial. Got maybe 30 seconds in to the second group of monsters. I killed them then nothing happened. Won't be paying a cent for a game that doesn't even work. It's a shame cause it looks great.

### 1/5 — Great game, buggy on iPad

*2025-05-14, version 1.1.12*

Fun game, good story.  Got to level 36 and keeps locking up and can’t progress.

### 1/5 — Slo-Mo Mole Whacking

*2025-04-08, version 1.1.12*

My pulse was beating so quickly playing this that it actually started slowing down. I couldn’t put my phone down as my eyes were closing from the excitement. I was lying on my couch playing this and I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw that 40 minutes had passed and I was still on the first level. I couldn’t contain my adrenaline and delight playing this, so much so that I had to uninstall it to save my fragile heart from the mass palpitations. Its amazing that we’ve advanced so far with out technology and graphics that we’re now reversing this process as innovation. Truly, an epic for gaming.

### 1/5 — İnmiyor

### 1/5 — Шляпа полная глючная!!

Ухахахха,каким дегенератам нужно быть,чтобы эта игра нравилась ?!!але!это г. Глючит жестко ,айфон 13!!!графика пс1!!!шляпа лютая !!!не качайте

### 1/5 — Black screen after logo

*2024-11-26, version 1.1.10*

Black screen after the logo iPhone 6 Plus

### 1/5 — Every game does this

*2024-10-10, version 1.1.8*

JUST MAKE THE FRICKING GAME PAY TOPLAY!! You lulled me in as well as countless other with ‘free gameplay’ but no, after only 3 chapters. That right ONLY 3 which are 10 minutes long, making people pay 8 bucks to play the whole game. Just make the frocking game pay to play I’ve had 3 games that do the same thing. I would still play it if it was a limited lived type where you either pay, watch ads or wait i and countless others would like it more, and the next time I find this game it better be a paid one and not free to download. 

PEOPLE DON’T DOWNLOAD IF YOU THINK IT IS FREE ITS NOT

### 1/5 — Dreadful

*2024-09-29, version 1.1.7*

Void of any originality. A poor mixture of Max Payne and the Hong Kong Massacre with some vampire stylistic elements. If it was free, maybe the banal core gameplay loop would be tolerable, but they expect you to pay after the first level, which had next to no redeeming factors.

### 1/5 — Копия Макса Пейна

Highly recommend this game! Gets even better as you progress.  Worth your time.

### 5/5 — Refreshing and fun

*2026-06-11, version 1.1.15*

Great game. A lot of control options to customize, a lot of fun action and an interesting story and voiceover. I do wish there were more enemy or world variety. But it is a ton of fun. Glad I came across this.

### 5/5 — This is great

*2026-04-16, version 1.1.15*

This is a great game but it needs Backbone support. The controller works but you can't store it in your backbone library

### 5/5 — Worth It .

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 5/5 — So fun

*2026-03-07, version 1.1.15*

I’m having a blast. The music with the UI makes this such a fun game.

### 5/5 — Super memorable game

*2026-03-01, version 1.1.15*

Love el paso!!! It’s a great game with an incredible environment and the story is awesome. Only downside is that I nearly have a heart attack fighting off those soldier things, the sound effects feel very real 😭
((they also don’t collect your data unlike most mobile games!!))

Also I read something about it becoming a movie and I really hope that can be done sometime in the future!

### 5/5 — A hidden gem

*2026-02-27, version 1.1.15*
