What players say
Truly shocked there hasn't been a true sequel to Aftershock yet. I need more of Ion Fury / Aftershock. Fast paced fun variety of weapons and levels. Funny dialogue and characters. Pure retro joy.

This game is an authentic experience that of the 90's FPS. If you liked Doom, Duke Nukem, Hexxen, and other similar games, you will probably like this one. The linear progress, get the cards, shoot at enemies and sort out bullet shortages and low health in the process, it gets it all. Only observation is there is not too much variety in enemy types, at least in the time I've played, I hope I get more as I advance in...
Build Engine game that would have fit right in with the classics of the 90s. Good stuff.
Steam reviews, mixed to its ratio and rotated daily. Opinions are theirs.
About the game
3D Realms, creators of Duke Nukem 3D, Prey, and Max Payne, team up with Voidpoint to bring back the legendary Build Engine, famous for classic shooters like Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior, and Blood. Fast-paced FPS combat across huge, secret-packed levels. Ion Fury is the real deal!
