![]() ![]() ![]() Tormentor❌Punisher‘s vulgarity and brutality might not be for everyone, but it is one of the most clever and chaotic top-down shooters I’ve played. While they also have one hit point, striking their weakpoint without getting killed is another matter. After about a minute of play, a boss will randomly spawn into the middle of the arena. Yet like a masochist, you come back for more still thanks to the fast, frenetic, and fun gameplay loop. Boss Rumble: The bosses in Tormentor X Punisher are the defining moments in each run. It begs to be replayed but will beat you down for doing so. Like Geometry Wars if it were made of flesh and bone, Tormentor X Punisher is an excruciatingly difficult, yet highly satisfying top-down shooter.

Destroy demons with crazy combos to unlock powerful upgrades and survive the endless onslaught of butt-ugly demons. There are power-ups in the game, but I honestly haven’t seen many of them, mainly due to not surviving as long as I would have liked. When there’s a large group of enemies amassed behind you, the screen-shake gets in the way – something I wish could be disabled. Kiting enemies around a level for combo kills are what’s best for your overall score. You can walk over them to close them for some quick points, and while that kept me surviving longer, it didn’t have me earning more points as a whole. Pentagrams light up on the ground for a few seconds before demons materialize. The game does try to help you where appropriate.

The controls are simple, yet the art of evasion and shooting is a skill to be learned over time.
