Hotline Miami Reviews

Honestly, I have never played a game that I like the idea of so much but frustrates me so quickly that I just quit after only a few minutes because of the absolutely insanely inconsistent AI and the janky gameplay.

It is one of the best(if not the best) 2D game ever. This game totally worth it. Gameplay is incredibly smooth, but also hard. Music is AMAZING. It really makes game more immersive. Graphics are also very good for a 2D game. Overall, I think everyone must play this game. I completed it and still play some levels because this game is too good:)

por enquanto é um jogo muito bom, faz tempo que não jogo, pretendo zerar, platinar e voltar e dar uma review melhor.

A brutal, fast-paced action game with a surreal 80s vibe. Legendary soundtracks and addictive gameplay make it unforgettable. I absolutely love this game—pure adrenaline and style!

This game is sick! The atmosphere of 1980s Miami is perfect. I especially loved the silent main character he fit so well with the story. I love the style, story, and gameplay. This game is a 10/10 I want to inject it in my veins

As I remembered when I played it on the PS3, a wonderful game that encourages you with all its elements to kill, to be faster, to do more combos, to have better punctuation. The soundtrack is perfect, I don't think they could have chosen better songs. The only thing that is missing for me are the bosses, with all the adrenaline I get from other levels I don't like having to do a fight/puzzle, I just want to punch them in the face and go for the next one.

You probably heard about this game already, and yeah it is a classic. I had to get used to it a little but in the end I enjoyed the game. Theme is really creative. It is really well made that you understand how it became a classic. It is a pixel game and some people might approach with prejudice but let me tell you, artistic side is lovely. It is simple, colorful and overall theme is complete. Gameplay is what most people will play the game for. It is one of the fast paced games where you either kill others one hit or die from one hit meanwhile seeking combos. I can say it is a little hard to learn and even harder to play it properly and do infinite combos to get A+ on all levels, but not impossible. It is actually pretty pleasing to learn it and try to do it. I only tried to do an A+ run a couple levels and it was fun, but grinding to that is pretty optional. You can witness the story and overall vibes meanwhile taking it a little slow and finish the game for good too. If you crave such a game I would recommend. I actually played the game for the story and theme and also not disappointed. It might be cut short but a pleasing experience. I was curious enough to learn the game a little to finish it till the ending. I love the stories that include psychos and violence, like Postal 2, and this game also did not disappoint me. I would recommend Hotline Miami highly, though you might need a little extra time and patience to learn it. I also want to talk about the music choices, it is just excellent and brilliant, absolutely loved it.

This game was amazing back then and it is amazing now. It hasn't aged badly not one bit. the whole CRT asthetic, brutal violence and tough as nails split second reaction gameplay made this game a one of a kind back in the day. So what is this game about? very simple, you play as sort of a mentally deranged hitman, who is hired by this [i]mysterious[/i] contractor, who sends you to kill a bunch of russians. Levels play on a top-down view, and you only can take 1 hit, so you are as deadly as you are as fragile just like the thugs and mobsters you are trying to kill. the mission is simple, KILL. EVERYONE. as fast as you can, and leave the crime scene in your car, get home, confirm the contract, and get ready for the next contract. Everything is twitch-reaction based and you are expected to re-do the same levels over and over again due to how easy it is to die. You make use of melee weapons, shotguns, machine guns, your fists, or anything you can think of to do the level. The biggest gameplay change are [b] The Masks [/b] which gives you substantial bonuses, and modifies the game in a very drastic way. Thats all im gonna say about this game, it is a bit short, but it's probably one of the biggest [b] Devolver Digital [/b] Games that put devolver on the map as one of the best indie publishers out there. The OST is also amazing. i Give this game a 9.5/10 When you are done with this , get [i] hotline miami 2 [/i] as well. https://store.steampowered.com/app/274170/Hotline_Miami_2_Wrong_Number/

A really fun game! The gameplay is super brutal with the one hit causes death thing, so you replay the same few sections over and over again and become better at them and eventually get past them. It's fun killing the enemies in many different ways and seeing their corpses and blood scattered around after killing all of them. You get better at the levels to the point that you can rack up a lot of points quickly either by killing enemies in different ways or killing a lot of them in quick succession. The pixelated graphics are charming and the soundtrack is absolutely god-like.

Hotline Miami isn’t just a game — it’s a full-on adrenaline rush wrapped in pixelated aesthetics and topped off with a psychedelic soundtrack. Yes, the game looks simple, but behind that apparent simplicity lies incredible depth. It’s meaty not just in terms of the sheer amount of blood on the screen, but also in the emotions it evokes. Every level is a challenge where a single mistake can cost you your life, and that’s exactly what makes it hardcore. You can literally feel every muscle tense up as you try to complete another mission. The game’s story is a whole other beast. The protagonist, a former soldier, is thrown into a world of violence and chaos, and his struggle with stress and inner demons is portrayed through surreal dialogues and unexpected twists. You’re not just killing enemies — you’re trying to figure out who you are and why you’re doing all of this. The game makes you think about the nature of violence, responsibility, and the consequences of your actions. The atmosphere of Hotline Miami is a masterpiece in itself. Neon colors, retro style, and a pulsating electronic soundtrack create the feeling of being trapped in some surreal trip. The game doesn’t let go until the very end, leaving you with a trail of questions and emotions. In short, if you haven’t played Hotline Miami yet, you’ve missed out on a lot. This isn’t just a game — it’s an experience that will stay with you for a long time. I recommend it to anyone ready to dive into a world where beauty and brutality go hand in hand.
