Side scroller where you're a reaper that uses hand held weapons and guns to kill undead who are up to no good. Your allies are candles. Yep, candles.

Sounds lame, and the story is, but the game is fun.

It's an action puzzler. Some levels are more of a puzzle than others, but I think only one time was I forced to play more puzzle than action.

The enemies are really varied, but come in three flavors: Zombies, Skeletons, and Demons.

The kills are really satisfying. Make sure you turn on the blood. Headshots are key. They don't just put down enemies, but every level gets scored 1-5 stars. They're meaningless except for achievements, but it adds something.

There are a few levels that required me to replay them multiple times before I got the timing and what not down. Frustrating at moments, but never not fun.

If you see this for $1 grab it. It's a perfect distraction game when you're watching a film or something.
