![]() Brigador is not the arcadey playground it may appear, because stomping around and blasting mindlessly will get you killed very, very fast. It’s the perfect setup for mayhem but like I mentioned, you have to be smart about it. Literally everything is destructible, from the tallest buildings to the tiniest bench. You’ll start in one corner of the map in your chosen vehicle, and you’ll have to make your way through the dense cityscape and dozens of enemy units to take it out. Every mission is a contract between you and the Solo Nobre Concern (complete with delicious legalese flavor text) to take out important targets such as orbital guns, enemy captains, or statues of Great Dead Leader. Every road and building and tree is rendered in incredible, pixel-perfect detail just like they used to do in those halcyon days of SVGA 2D games.Īll of this is here for you to level the absolute shit out of.

Indeed, the brutal dictator of a remote colony world is no more, and a certain megacorp is paying big bucks to make sure no one fills the vacuum he left. In other words, they took the concept of mechs and made what could be the best possible game with them.īrigador opens with harsh neon, heavy synth, and the words GREAT LEADER IS DEAD – SOLO NOBRE MUST FALL. You will annihilate columns of tanks, regiments of infantry, and entire city blocks, but only if you are careful and smart about it. ![]() Brigador understands this, appreciates this, and serves it up with exactly one caveat: It will not be reckless. ![]() I expect lots of buildings and tanks and people to tower over, and I expect to stomp them with reckless abandon.
