Bullet Witch excited reviewers who played early builds of the action game. The game developers promised to create a game that combined gunplay, magic, amazing effects, next generation graphics, and destructible environments. At times, they deliver on their promises, but the final product should disappoint almost any gamer looking for an experience worth 60 dollars. The game is set in 2013 after billions of people have died from warfare and disease. Hordes of demons attack the world, and a witch named Alicia must defend humanity from a mighty army. Alicia uses a mighty gunrod and spells to take on the demon hordes.
Pros:
The pros of Bullet Witch do not match up to the shortcomings of the game. At times the graphics and music rise to the occasion, but every aspect of Bullet Witch remained inconsistent throughout the game. The spell effects look impressive, and the spells are interesting. The destructible environments make for memorable fights at times, and the opponents are colorful.
Cons:
Although the game designers of Bullet Witch promised to make a game that would combine amazing graphics with exciting gameplay, the game falls short in every area.
Bullet Witch features uninspired level design, average graphics, and tepid gameplay. Spells become almost useless, because a difficult interface makes them unruly and slow. in the middle of a frantic gunfight, players don’t have time to choose spells from a menu. The graphics of enemies are at times impressive, but there are not enough enemies and the backgrounds do not match up with the great visuals of the characters. In addition, aiming is difficult and players will have problems with aiming. In summation, Bullet Witch is only a shadow of a true next generation title, and you have much better games to spend 60 dollars on than this poor excuse for an action title. Shadowrun, a similar game with good reviews, will release this year and promises to combine exciting gunplay and magic. Maybe Shadowrun will save use from the evil spell of this witch.
