I beat the game in 6 minutes. Its goodTM. And by that, I mean its literally the worst game I have ever played. Spend 2 dollars on literally anything else. It was better when it was just an empty folder.

Shadow: Treachery cannot be tolerated is a scam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX_9mljw7L8 This scam, according to others appeared on Steam without any .exe file and was just an empty folder when downloaded. Since then the scam was updated to include a whopping six seconds of scamplay that is damn near impossible to progress past. Let me make this clear, the trailer for this scam which is roughly six seconds of someone filming the corner of their computer monitor is the extent of the entire experience. There may be up to two minutes more scamplay from what I hear, but I cannot confirm. When you load up this scam you get one poorly spelled sentence explaining that you are a guy getting ambushed in the street. You then hit start and instantaneously get loaded into a screen with enemies shooting you. Yes, I mean instantly with zero time to react and you die within a second and a half. After you get over your initial disbelief as to what is happenning, you then try to actually fight back. The gun on your screen in angled and placed at the bottom corner, doesn't point straight ahead and there is no reticle to help you aim. The feedback on shooting is non-existent so you have zero way to figure out what you are shooting at. After you accept your fate and decide to just spam bullets everywhere you realize that the freaking controls are inverted for some reason. Why the hell would you ever set FPS controls to inverted? I should stop asking questions, because then I start thinking about why anyone would willingly pay the $100 Steam Direct fee to get this scam on the storefront. Do people really make enough money on THIS to justify the cost? This scam more than anything else justifies that Steam needs some sort of quality control. It's very apparent that their curation isn't even loading up games before accepting them, much less trying them for even 30-seconds. This is an instance where I am returning a product, because there is no way in hell I'm letting this scam artist keep the money I spent to see for myself how awful this was.

So, this is an absolute abomination from the ground up. No Effort, scamming POS Developer yet again. Just pure trash to the Steam store. Video To Prove How Terrible this game is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmAsuGQoSvc

This is just the worst (EDIT: after the free episode 2 came out and games without content on steam, i cant say that anymore) game on Steam. Playtime for the whole game is around 2 (EDIT: now 4) minutes. All parts of the game, handling, graphic, sound are awfull. The best part of this mess is this sentence from the storefront-description: "The most interesting feature of this game is that if you shoot the goons and they don't die, you have to shoot at the places surrounding the attackers to kill them." Here is a full walkthrough of the game (i played it twice to see, if the abrupt ending is not just a bug): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qh5Xz4971Q UPDATE: Episode 2 came out as a free dlc. While it is still a mess, e2 is better then the first episode. Graphics, sound and handling are still awefull, but it is much more playable. Playtime around two minutes. But i am impressed, that the dev is still trying to make a full story and invest time to add new content. It is still a bad game, but i cant say anymore, that this is the worst game on steam. Here is the full walkthrough for Episode 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kxS4Mwlv7g In the moment i wrote this update, the dlc is not included on this storepage.

[h1]The Worst Game on Steam[/h1] This far into Steam opening up it's figurative floodgates, I may have just found the worst game on Steam. Starting off with the continued lack of monitoring of the Steam Greenlight and then developing into the system that is Steam Direct that just allows anyone with $100 to come onto the once professional platform in which it was a great achievement to get your game on Steam when your game got up there with the big boys. But it's now become home to some of the worst game imaginable with cheap, shoddy, asset flip trash wriggling and crawling onto the Steam store on a daily basis. This game solidifies that this will not be changing anytime soon. [h1]The Game[/h1] I'm not gonna go into my detailed stuff as I usually do where I talk about the gameplay, the graphics, the music and possibly the story, I'm just going to detail my experience from start to finish, and you can actually see the whole game be played through here, mainly because I feel like even here, a lot of this stuff has to be seen to be believed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnWyBkJxE4Y So, real quickly, I just want to say that the game launched with literally no files included with it, which was obviously a [i]great[/i] [spoiler]f*cking horrible[/spoiler] way to start your launch. I also, want to bring attention to the description real quickly: [quote=Riad Arifin]This is an episodic game. In this episode, you will be the main character Shadow (Alex Summer) who runs an international criminal empire. You will be attacked by few goons and you have to kill them all before they kill you. This is also a first-person shooter game. You can use the mouse pointer to aim and click the mouse button to shoot. The most interesting feature of this game is that if you shoot the goons and they don't die, you have to shoot at the places surrounding the attackers to kill them.[/quote] The fact that they want to turn the game into an episodic series is laughable when they have shown a lack of game development skills in this first episode. I'm going to be coming back to the description though a few times, as it's a good reference point to go with alongside the game's "story." So, you open the game and you're met with this screen: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1324569127 As you can see, the text is as small as the chances are of this game getting an overall positive Steam review score organically. It sets the scene describing how your "bodygourds" leave you to kill some goons. The game then drops you into this scenario as soon as you click "Enter" http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1324569410 The scenario is this, you're put into this zone where you can't move your character around and you're surrounded by 6 guys (it should be 7, but one of them instantly dies as soon as you load in, [spoiler]he probably didn't want to be in the game[/spoiler].) The developers couldn't model your character holding their gun right, so instead, the hands sort of cross over each other while the gun hovers in the space between them. By the way, just bringing attention back to that screenshot I linked when I'm actually in the game, I want to say, I had the game on "ultra" graphical quality, and it looks like that. I also want to quickly bring your attention back to a specific part of the description: [quote=Riad Arifin]The most interesting feature of this game is that if you shoot the goons and they don't die, you have to shoot at the places surrounding the attackers to kill them.[/quote] This is basically the developer's excuse for not being able to create efficient hitboxes. "Can't hit em when you're aiming directly, well just fire some shots in their general direction and you might hit them....maybe?" This feature is not interesting, interesting is what I call Fez's concept of being in a 2.5D environment solving puzzles on islands, not sometimes and probably not hitting enemies when I shoot them. Also, there are no crosshairs in the game or any ADS (Aiming Down the Sights for those unfamiliar with shooters), so you can't even [i]attempt[/i] to be accurate in any way, shape or form. Every time you enter this zone, the only thing you can do is spray bullets in each of the enemy's general directions, but what makes things worse is the weird mouse sensitivity that they've got. The left-right movements are too high, but the up-down movements are too slow, and you can't adjust these, you're stuck with these for the entirety of this game's short, miserable timespan. After you get lucky enough to kill all of them, or the game bugs out and decides at one point to kill them all for you (which is shown in the video) it then jumps you to a [i]cutscene[/i] consisting of 4 models sitting at a desk going through a slideshow, but you could probably be forgiven for thinking the models sitting at a desk was the slideshow, because they have an equal amount of movement and livelihood about them. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1324569958 And no, the image they use for one of their slides in my screenshot was not done by me, that is in the game. So basically it's a bunch of FBI people suddenly throwing in a story for you, which is basically the stuff in the description, alongside a voice actor who breathes too much into his mic. Then after that, the game ends. In the video, I completed the game in 3 minutes 58 secs in the first run and 3 mins and 12 secs in the second run, both of which probably could have been shorter if I didn't die so many times in the shooter sequence. All of this put together, probably makes this the worst game I have ever played on Steam. So yeah, do not buy this. I think the game's own title sums the experience up well: Cannot be tolerated.

Bought this because I wanted to see what all the fuss is about. Yeah, the game actually has files now but you still shouldn't buy it... here's why: The mouse control is terrible and I couldn't get past the very starting level (had to put DPI as low as possible just to even control the view). Wait, a few moments later I did it; the game then goes to a cutscene (if I can even call it that) with a pretty terrible voice over. I got bored of it clicked skip and found myself back at the start. Uh, that was the whole game, that was it. Oh, and like all other crappy games on Steam, it's a terrible Unity game made in God knows how many minutes with presumably assets attained from somewhere free or cheap... Now I just need to leave the game open for four more minutes to leave this review (games must be played for 5 minutes at least, who knew?)... Amazing that I could finish the game faster than I can write a review for it.
