I didn’t think much of the first few minutes but if you keep going it just gets better and better I promise. It’s so good I just bought all the other slaughter games. We really need more games like this: 1st/3rd operation shooters that don’t require too much thinking or puzzles (the beginning does have you bouncing around doing one puzzle, but after that, it’s just about killing the unique bosses, or surviving an onslaught). ### 4/5 — Knives out *2023-01-19* A neat prison break concept/ game. Graphics are good and the gameplay is simple enough. You try to break out of prison and have to face enemies and obstacles in your way. There’s blood and violence in the game but it’s certainly entertaining. Controls can be a bit funky though they are adjustable. I like that they added a first person mode which makes it feel more immersive. ### 5/5 — 5 stars *2022-12-10* 5 stars for backbone controller support ### 2/5 — Controller support *2022-11-13* Controller support is extremely terrible in this game. A update should be released to fix it. ### 5/5 — 👋BAŞARILI✨ *2022-07-25, version 1.9* Bence fiyatına değer hikaye modlu saran bi oyun ama hikaye modlu oyun sevmiyorsanız tavsiye etmem.(Oyun çok Kısa sürdü daha uzun olabilirdi) ### 5/5 — Игра классная! *2022-05-15* Спасибо за прекрасную игру! Сделайте пожалуйста порт для AppleTv с поддержкой контроллера, будет вообще замечательно! ### 5/5 — Хорошая игра *2022-04-23* Игра интересная достаточно, жаль только короткая, прошел за пол дня ;( ## Frequently asked questions about Slaughter ### What is this app about?
