Your character isn’t attacking on rails, but rather has a full 360 degrees of smooth, responsive movement. It feels very different to shoot streams of fire than to bash with a baseball bat. This positive feedback cycle of more kills creating more power modes organically increases the excitement in the game, while raising the stakes as the onslaught persists.Ī notable design feature of Suicide Squad is that the experience of playing each individual character is unique, and you’ll always get to play all three so you’ll improve with each over time. Each character’s power mode grants additional bonus points, making successive kills even more fruitful. Harley Quinn carries a baseball bat and a magnum revolver and goes into brutal “frenzy mode” when she gets multiple kills. El Diablo shoots fire streams from his hands and can unleash “super nova mode” after successive attacks. The characters have unique weapons and skills, ideal for different types of attacks, and the game features robust and responsive melee and ranged combat.ĭeadshot wields an assault rifle and wrist-mounted guns, and can activate an aggressive “marksman mode” after making direct hits. You can choose the order you play the characters, but as each dies, a surviving member of the squad immediately takes over. You are fighting against waves of undead humanoid monsters who are shooting assault rifles and hacking with axes. Suicide Squad: Special Ops is an endless survival high-score chaser where you play as three characters from the movie: Deadshot, El Diablo and Harley Quinn. Unlike most games of this sort, Suicide Squad: Special Ops is actually a well-designed, engaging, and - surprise - entirely free game. Suicide Squad, which premieres August 5, has recently offered up their own thematic game - and we are happy to report it is a very strong entry among action movie tie-ins. These games have had varying degrees of success, often utilizing reskins of old game engines or employing oppressive monetization systems that offer little return on investment. In the past few years, several action movie releases have put resources into mobile games as part of their marketing campaigns.
