Butcher's Creek

I have loved this game, it feels like someone has played Manhunt and Condemned, and said "hey let's make a game that has a story inspired by Manhunt and gameplay like Condemned and give the players an option to interact with the props on the environment to fight the enemies like Half-Life 2. It felt like it took some of the best elements from some games. I recommend this if you like Manhunt and Condemned, and survival horror games in general. Also thanks cop_fighter for gifting me this game on his own birthday!

Condemned, but funnier. Sticks the landing, too. Highly recommend.

Awesome sauce!
