This is what Amid Evil offers you
The premise of Amid Evil is deliberately kept simple to send older shooter fans back to the 90s. Instead of fighting aliens in the distant future or terrorists in the present, you”ll be fighting hordes of bloodthirsty monsters in a gritty fantasy setting.
To reach your goal and stop the evil, you ll use magic spears, axes and wands Oldschool is also the story, which fits on a beer mat: You have been chosen by a divine power as a champion and now you have to reconquer their holy lands, a total of seven of them.
The adaptive enemy AI that chases you through the non-linear levels is supposed to provide a permanent challenge. If you look around thoroughly, you can discover numerous secrets in the worlds. Despite the retro look, technology fans can also take a closer look at Amid Evil, because the Unreal Engine 4 title even masters ray tracing.
That”s what Steam users are saying

Finally, a few voices from the Steam community. If out of (nearly 5,000 reviews) almost all of them are positive, Amid Evil must be doing something right.
The Steam user (Corrsk) praises the level design, which is much better than it was in the 90s
. The arsenal of weapons is great, as is the movement, which allows for precise jumps. User (iddqd87) calls Amid Evil the strangest of retro shooters, very pretty and whacky and quite satisfying.
To the same tune, another user writes:
The gameplay is top notch. I have to give special praise to the level design team. There is no map in the game, but I almost never felt lost.
What is criticized? Negative reviews have to be looked for with a magnifying glass, as mentioned, but they do exist. The German-speaking user (KaisaGlider) criticizes the difficulty level, which is far too unfair in places, while (Lina) complains about the lack of power-ups, weapon combinations and interactive objects on the map (such as explosive barrels).
As always in life, it”s best to make up your own mind about Amid Evil! Thanks to the demo, you can convince yourself of the qualities of the shooter before you buy it. If you like what you see, you can look forward to a really good bargain! Feel free to write us in the comments if you like Amid Evil and which aspects stand out in your opinion.
