The yr is 2097. The earth is inward ruins equally giant enemy mechs goes haywire. Only you, the hero, tin defeat them using your ain mech, equipped alongside a beam rifle, beam sword, together with a real powerful dorsum cannon. But of course, y'all quest to produce about errands because y'all are a newbie, together with most of the people don’t actually aid nearly you. And for about reason, at that spot is a mech tournament, because a global nation of war is likewise deadening for them I guess. This sums upwards my experience inward Damascus Gear: Operation Tokyo.
This game is a top-down hack-and-slash shooter hybrid, wherein y'all customize your mech, convey missions, together with destroy enemies along the way. Most of the missions are educate inward a post-apocalyptic Tokyo, which is overrun past times enemy mechs called RAGE. Upon starting, y'all are provided your ain mech, together with y'all volition quest to convey about real unproblematic missions. The controls are easy, equally each of your weapon is assigned to a button. This is non a twin-stick shooter, thus y'all can’t aim piece moving. This is quite a hassle because I sometimes accidentally burn downward at the incorrect direction. The ammo is unlimited, but y'all quest to cheque your weapon’s cooldown, or y'all volition simply locomote firing blanks. When y'all are depression on health, at that spot is an minute repair push which would replenish your HP. As long equally y'all receive got extra repair kits, it is slow non to die. After all, enemies are non actually that complicated – which is non actually expert because every come across is either easy, or it is simply tedious because they receive got high HP. After every mission, y'all volition locomote rated according to your performance.
Outside of the battles, y'all tin equip your mech alongside parts obtained during your missions. You tin also customize its advert together with the colouring for each trunk part. If y'all receive got about extra parts, y'all tin sell it on the shop, where y'all tin also purchase other parts for your mech. Your mech has iii slots for weapon: 1 for each hand, together with 1 for your back. The weapon alternative is pretty wide. For my playthrough, I receive got selected a beam rifle together with a beam sword. During the subsequently stages, y'all tin equip a dorsum beam cannon, which is real powerful, together with tin decimate a release of enemies inward a unmarried fire.
During the class of the game, y'all volition locomote introduced to the people inside the arrangement that hired you. Most of them are rude to y'all because the plot says so. During my class of play, at that spot is aught substantial that happened, aside from y'all are a tournament participant, which is actually weird considering that the earth is inward peril. While each of the people that y'all come across receive got a personality, they are quite forgettable. As a fan of mecha anime, the storey did aught to me. Aside from that, the biggest gripe that I receive got for this game is its repetitiveness – together with that includes the scrap together with the visuals. Your assail patterns are the same, together with y'all tin purpose same tactics to defeat enemies. With most of the missions taking house inward a ruined Tokyo, the maps are recycled together with looks real dull. The music is also forgettable at its best. The gun together with explosion sounds doesn’t assistance it either.
Even alongside all those criticisms, this is nevertheless quite an enjoyable title. If y'all are inward for an arcade-like mech activity experience, together with then y'all tin travail this game. Battling your means through an regular army of giant robots nevertheless feels good. Just don’t hold off about deepness inward either the storey or the gameplay, or y'all volition locomote disappointed.

- Fairly expert customization
- Controls are slow to learn
- Fun gameplay
The Bad:
- Graphics together with Music are non actually that good
- Gameplay mightiness acquire likewise repetitive
- Story is non engaging enough
