Should you play it?

Crisis Brigade 2 reloaded is about covering, pointing and shooting, fast-paced pure action. Intense shootouts, powerful weapons, challenging levels, fierce enemies... Like the 90's classic arcade machines, but with the immersion that Virtual Reality is capable of.

  • Immersive physical cover mechanics
  • Challenging and skill-based gameplay
  • Co-op multiplayer enhances experience
  • Good progression and unlock systems
  • Nostalgic arcade shooter feel
Things to keep in mind
  • High difficulty can be frustrating
  • Limited story and narrative depth
  • Short content with few levels
  • Some technical and ui rough edges
  • Repetitive on-rails gameplay

How to use the graph
Similarity map

Each dot is a game. They are arranged from the same motivation profile as in the “Why this game works” section below. Closer dots usually mean more similar reasons to play (exploration, competition, relaxation, etc.)—not that one game is “better” than another.

  • Purple star: this page’s game — everything on the map is relative to it.
  • Coloured chips: click to highlight games that mainly differ on that motivation; click again to reset.
  • Dotted line: link between this page’s game and the one selected for comparison.
  • Hover a dot for a screenshot preview, score, and top score gaps; click to compare in the panel on the right.
  • Scroll or double-click the chart to zoom out and see more games.

Why don’t the axes read like a score? This view uses t-SNE: it only keeps who is close to whom. The scales are not “good to bad” or hours played—they separate groups on the map. Read distance between dots, not the axis numbers (hidden on purpose).
