Paint the Town Red

Take down the enemy in one of many locations and time periods while playing Paint the Town Red.

If you're looking for an action-packed combat game, then consider Paint the Town Red. The graphics are a little odd as the enemies look more like robots than people; however, it's a fun game that takes you to different time periods. There are various weapons to use with each time period. This can be confusing as you get used to one weapon and then have to start using another one in a different era.

The idea of the game is about as simple as you can get. All you have to do is shoot, stab, or hit people in order to get as much of the screen as red as possible. It seems graphic, but with the computerized design, it's more like pixels instead of a splash of blood on the screen.

You can compare the graphics to a game that is like Minecraft. You do need to have good reflexes as there are enemies that seem to hide around every corner. It's a first-person game with your arms and weapon in front of you, making it a little more difficult to see what you're shooting at, but you can sometimes see farther distances as well.

It's sometimes best to hit your enemy before you see him as this can give you a head start on the defeat. If you aren't fast enough to kill enough people, then you have to restart the level. This is when the game can become annoying because it seems that you're always restarting the levels when you get about halfway through the game. Some of your enemies have weapons that just don't compare to the ones you have, but you can update along the way.
