HUNDRED FIRES: The rising of red star - EPISODE 2

Another great chapter in this heart wrenching saga.

Played and reviewed the first episode back when it came out, absolutely had to do it with this one too. Episode 2 is just as hilarious and ridiculous as the first one. It is however also a lot of fun, just a bit short. Watch the video review for more info: https://youtu.be/qwirZ1fvPxo Absolutely recommended for Metal Gear fans!

Just like the first game (which I played on switch) it's incredibly short but very competent. If you like classic metal gear and a game that doesn't take itself to seriously then this is for you. Although janky and running poorly on my already quite weak computer this game delivers on it's ambitions. Though not perfect I'm still happy I played it and I'm looking forward to more. Ignoring minor visual flaws and ONE visual bug in the campaign this game is completely bug free. I got it for cheap but the full price isn't expensive either. All in all it's very good.

HUNDRED FIRES: The Rising of Red Star – Episode 2 continues the stealth-action saga created by David Amado Fernández and published by Naili Studio, building upon the foundation established in the first chapter while introducing higher stakes and a more emotionally driven narrative. Set against a backdrop of Cold War tension and military intrigue, the game follows the journey of Valero Montenegro as he finds himself trapped deep within enemy territory. Rather than simply presenting another mission centered on espionage, this installment places personal relationships and survival at the center of its story, giving players a stronger reason to become invested in the unfolding events. The narrative revolves around Montenegro's imprisonment inside a Soviet installation known as the Red Star. What begins as a desperate struggle for freedom soon develops into a dangerous rescue operation involving his daughter and a larger conspiracy that threatens to reshape the balance of power. The story embraces themes of sacrifice, loyalty, and perseverance, creating a more intimate experience than a typical military adventure. While the plot occasionally leans into dramatic and larger-than-life sce…

"Mom can we have Metal Gear Solid?" "No honey, you have Metal Gear Solid at home." The Metal Gear Solid at home in question: This game. (Review from the 1st Ep pretty much applies here too) Of course I've played the original Metal Gear Solid game, so I can appreciate what this one went for, the voice acting is laughably bad and peak schlock. Controls are sluggish and janky, par for the course for an indie attempt at an all time stealth classic. Pretty much, if Snake retired prematurely and called up his friend (or cousin) from Cuba to do the legend's work, this is the result. Ep. 3 should be interesting. Not much to do after beating the campaign, so wait til this is on sale at least. MGS Vets need not apply.
