I was browsing the Steam Summer Sale like I usually do when I came across Impaler Gold for a ridiculously cheap price. As someone who loves boomer shooters, I figured I'd give it a shot. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much—I thought it would be one of those games that's not bad, but nothing special because of how cheap it was. I couldn't have been more wrong. This game is so damn fun that I'm not even sure where to start. Impaler Gold is a fast-paced boomer shooter with two different modes, campaign and a time trial mode. The first campaign has 20 stages and can easily be finished in around 30 minutes, while the second has 16 levels and takes about 15–20 minutes. So yes, it's a short game, but it's also incredibly replayable. There are plenty of unlockable skills that change the way you play and keep each run feeling fresh. The game is challenging too, but in a fair way. It never felt frustrating to me—it always felt like my mistakes were the reason I died. There are also Hard and Nightmare difficulties if you're looking for an even bigger challenge. I haven't tried Nightmare yet, but both Normal and Hard felt really satisfying. As you play, you'll unlock new guns, but…
