Not a Hero is released on PlayStation 4 this week. Here's our review of the PC game, first published on 14th May 2015.
All of the action in Not a Hero is precipitated by Bunnylord, an anthropomorphised purple rabbit that wants to win elections by fighting crime. Well, by your fighting crime on his behalf anyway, with 'fighting crime' meaning 'kill every single criminal you see anywhere.' Bunnylord lives in a world of absolutes and, as his agent, so do you.
Not a Hero is a game about shooting criminals in the face. It's a 2D shooter on two planes: characters move and shoot in the forefront, and take cover in the background. The style is an oblique projection, so the environments give an impression of depth but are never visually confusing about which plane the moving parts are on.
