And it’s not bad, though it does take a little time to set up. While the game is built for single player thrills, you can involve a friend in co-op as well. (Once you run out, surprise, it’s game over.) It only lasts a few seconds, so you’ll need to prepare with each procedurally generated room, before you get shot to bits and have to use one of your few revives. The thing is, you’ll want to make the most out of your slo-mo ability. No sense just calmly opening a door, though – you’re kicking the sucker down, shooting first and asking questions later. The game essentially asks you to take control of a police officer as you make your way through a building, clearing out each room that has thugs in it. Still, if you oved the original or just want a quick, mindless way of shooting thugs in the face, you could do worse. There are limitations (and, sigh, bugs) that get in the way of putting this game on the next level where it should be. Now, we have the sequel, Rico: London, which follows a similar status quo, but with some interesting touch-ups.Īlas, that doesn’t necessarily mean all of them work. It’s a fast-paced shooter where you clear room after room of baddies, all while picking up ammo and using slo-mo to your advantage with each new entry. While the 2019 shoot-em-up Rico likely won’t be put into the same class as, say, Halo Infinite, it’s still got its charms.
