So the game play is in a very classic RPG style. You start the game out in Eric's room waking up to a knock
on the door saying you are going to be late for bowling class. He awakens says some philosophical lingo then
you have to call Dylan. You prepare some duffel bags in the basement, feeling them full of propane bombs and Dylan arrives shortly after. Then you begin the faithful journey to the school setting up the bombs, waiting and preparing the guns then going in the school and doing exactly what you thought, shooting everything that moves in a Pokemon style rpg action doing everything from shooting the students, stabbing teachers and even murdering a nun. You also have a selection of homemade bombs you can use! Whoopy! Well after all of the shooting is out of your system your characters commit suicide and a section showing actual pictures of the shooting, the students and an actual photograph of Eric and Dylan's bodies laid out on the floor fresh after blowing each others heads off. Thinking this is the end one may think, well, that was fucked up let's go shower after something so disturbing. But no you would be mistaken. The game actually continues and Dylan finds himself alone in hell and you have to fight your way through, battling DOOM enemies. You also meet Mario, Mega Man and a few other video game characters before you meet real iconic personalities and delivering a copy of a Darwin book to none other than Nietzsche.You reunite with Eric and you fight Satan who tells you he is proud of your deeds once he is defeated. The last scene is Columbine again were a meeting is being held discussing the evils of music, video games, etc.
Wow, one may think, what a fucked up concept. But the troubles don't end there, the control? Fucking terrible. If you use keyboard control options there are about, oh say, 15 fucking buttons that do that same thing. Directional controls are okay unless you decide to use a D-pad or something of the sort then guess what? THOSE ARE WORSE THAN THE GODDAMN ABILITY BUTTONS ON THE KEYBOARD!!! Oh and the directions of what to do are some times shockingly bad. One example, when you plant the bomb and get yourself armed to the teeth then you have to find "find a good spot on Rebel Hill to wait until the fun starts." Okay you need to go find a marker telling you where to stand until you rush the school right? Nope, you aimlessly wonder around hitting the select button until you find the exact spot you need to be in. IT IS SO IRRATATING!!! And that is the game in all of its essence, highly unnerving and disturbing, partial shitty controls and overall a kick in the balls to everyone that plays and the survivors of the actual event. I am ending here as I have nothing more to say about this shit.
