Descend into the disturbing and twisted world of RIP! This gruesome shooter lets you choose from three different evil characters (Halloween, Death, and the Devil) to try and repel evil animals. It is your goal to protect your evil force field from intruders.

This game reminded me of an old-school video game shooter. You have a turret and you must protect yourself from an onslaught on enemies that are trying to get you. There are over 40 levels and each level is packed with non-stop action. What I did enjoy was the frantic nature of the game. I felt that the enemies would never end. There are also upgrades in the level (like a better gun or bombs) that help you when the enemies become tougher, or start to pile up on you.

This is not my type of game, but I thought it was pretty fun. The graphics were fairly good and I did like the themes, as they had a cartoonish feel (and who doesn’t love cartoons). I would say it is not a great fit for younger kids, though, as it is kind of scary and enemies bleed. The game designers did add a feature to the game (which I found hilarious) which creates flowers instead of blood when you shoot the enemies. Overall, this was a solid game but because I don’t really enjoy these types, I have to give it two and a half stars out of five.
