| Evil Dead Hail To The King (PC Game/Eng) Full Free Download |
Evil Dead: Hail to the King is a Resident Evil style action adventure that picks up eight years after the events of Army of Darkness. Featuring an abundance of puzzle solving gun shooting and chainsaw using Hail to the King sports voiceovers by Bruce Campbell in addition to a wide variety of recognizable enemies, upgradeable weapons, monster-specific fatalities, and a non linear game design for multiple story paths. Sadly for Evil Dead fans, the PlayStation 2 version of Hail to the King was cancelled not too long after work on the Dreamcast version was completed. An official reason for its cancellation was never given.
Evil Dead: Hail to the King attempts to marry the concepts of the film series with the style of play found in Capcom's Resident Evil games. you view Evil Dead from a variety of fixed camera perspectives, kill monsters with your shotgun and chainsaw, and store away items those that you don't have enough room to carry in a mysterious box that magically reappears in several different places throughout the course of the game. The gameplay in Evil Dead differs from Resident Evil in that it favors action over puzzle solving. To its credit, the game provides ample amounts of ammo and health. It's unlikely that you'll have to replay a section of the game more than once to make sure that you have enough bullets and first-aid kits to get through a tough spot, which happens frequently in the Resident Evil series.
Evil Dead's fixed camera angles often defer to cinematic perspectives instead of those that are actually useful in a fight. This means that you'll often find yourself on a path or in a room battling a Deadite and you won't be sure if your attack is lined up correctly your foes, however, don't seem to have any trouble lining up their attacks. This is a classic example of a graphical problem affecting gameplay, although the visuals in the Dreamcast version of the game do possess many nice touches outside of that. The game's rendered backgrounds are excellent looking and work well to re-create the mood of the Evil Dead films. They're also given a semblance of life through the use of short video loops that create the illusion of movement such as the shadows of trees swaying in the wind. You may have seen this effect before in games like Eidos' Fear Effect, but you've never seen it look this good. The player and creature character models are rendered well, although they stand apart from the background in a way that's slightly disconcerting. Subtler visual effects such as the chunks of gore that drip off of Ash's chainsaw after a battle with a Deadite and leaves picked up by the wind are also noteworthy. All of these elements combine to give Evil Dead: Hail to the King an almost photo-realistic look at times. It's a shame that its bum camera angles and jarringly basic character animations detract so much from what is an otherwise sharp-looking game.
