Commando Blaze is a light-hearted, action-packed, rage-quit game that average players should not even attempt to try. (I’m kidding. I’m begging you to try the game!) It is inspired by classic Run & Gun games and I want to say it comes with a wonderful plot but no… it does have some weird dialogues and an end scene that will prove to be rather rewarding for retro game lovers. It has 5 missions that can be completed within 10 minutes, or a few days. And each mission is truly a test of your endurance (and patience). Featuring - 11 characters each with a different gun! - 5 extremely challenging missions - Casual Boss fights - Weird dialogues - Comes with “retro” style cheat code Check out our other games @ affinixygames.com
