![]() But he game starts off relatively slowly, with only a bunch of foes on a screen, located in the slums of Cairo. Big hordes need big guns - you will enjoy every new toy which is significantly more powerful than previous weapons and allow to take evergrowing amounts of enemies, which also become towering beasts. New thing in SS3 are melee attacks that can quickly gib single enemies - but won't help against the horde. An uncommon addition is mighty sledgehammer - close-range weapon which effectively splashes minor enemies in no-time. At the beginning you will be playing with familiar handgun, shotgun and assault riffle, which work as usual. Weapons, your tools of destruction, ask for separate paragraph. Every enemy is different and needs alternate approach, every weapon has unique advantages, while the ammo is scarce. This 'silly, brainless' shooter involves more skill and intelligence than recent realistic blockbusters. You will reload game many times at hottest moments just to impove your aim and strategy every time, until the challenge is beaten.Oh yes, the strategy. Taking excessive damage causes death - a thing not obvious in modern games.New players may find it impossible to win at diffuculty beyond normal. Don't expect the comfort of hiding behind an obstacle and waiting for your health to regenerate. This game will force you to strafe in unimaginable ways, swap weapons every few seconds, aim at surrounding monsters and never feel safe. It's just harder and doesn't allow player to stop for a moment. It does not, however, spoil the game's concept "No cover, all man". Health pick-ups don't float anymore in the air, their placement is logical and realistic.Behaviour of foes also has been altered - soldiers can crouch to take cover, bigger foes strafe to dodge upcoming rockets. Enemies are no longer cartoony fools, there is someting scary in their design. Although the concept of shooting reckless monsters is older than genre itself, compared to its first episode, Serious Sam has gone mature. Game is good at what it is supposed to be and does not distract from its core. While it may not satisfy Skyrim or Minecraft players, it is an obligatory position for any hardcore shooter fan. ![]() This is a first person shooter where all you do is run and shoot.

The weapons themselves range from conventional tools such as a pistol, shotgun, and assault rifle while also giving players some less conventional weapons such as a portable cannon, laser-rifle and a new entry to the series - the mutilator. SS3 also continues the trend of having the player fight large amounts of enemies with any weapon at their disposal. ![]() When the player chooses a difficulty, the game applies a score modifier based on difficulty and also applies score variables on time, saves made, and enemy kills - tallied at the end of each level. Like the previous entries in the series, the game is a simple, arcade-style shooter that throws back many elements to the early days of the genre with games such as Wolfenstein 3D, Doom and Duke Nukem 3D. Various attempts to retake Egypt and reach the Time-Lock have failed, until a new task force is sent in with "Serious" Sam Stone on board, and despite being separated from his team - Sam plows forward with all the weaponry he can find.
