The missions in Brigador can be tackled in a number of different ways. The sheer number of customization options made available to the player in Brigador ensures that missions can be played and replayed a number of different ways and deliver a fresh experience with each playthrough. Each new weapon and vehicle, looks and handles differently and bring their own advantages and disadvantages to the fight. In the pre-mission menu, players choose a pilot, a vehicle from one of three classes (mech, tank, hovercraft) and then has outfit your vehicle with two weapons and a special ability.īrigador is very effective in making these options look and feel nuanced enough to not be carbon copies of one another. Brigador gives players a wealth of customizable options to match their play style. Although the mission objectives are similar from level to level the number of ways that Brigador lets you complete each mission is impressive. This narrative structure is pulled off masterfully, each new bit of story deepens your understanding of the world enough to be satisfying, but leaves enough mystery to compel the player to keep playing.Įach mission basically breaks down the same way enter the level, destroy your targets, and escape. This information is told to the player in bits and pieces, either through mission briefings or through purchasable “Lore”, which is bought at the in-game store for money that is accumulated during missions. You play as a contractor for the SNC (The Solo Nobre Concern) which is one of these factions. The game’s story is intentionally vague yet still intriguing in the game’s first levels the ruler of Solo Nobre, referred to as “The Great Leader”, is dead and now the planet’s various political factions have begun battling for control of the planet. Brigador takes place in the far future on the planet Solo Nobre, a planet colonized by humans at the farthest reaches of space.
Unfortunately, there is one thing that keeps Brigador from becoming my newest obsession, tank controls.īut before we get into the nitty-gritty of the control scheme, let me give you a basic rundown of the rest of the game. Piloting a giant mech, tank, or hover ship though a futuristic, cyberpunk city while using massively destructive weapons to lay waste to all that stand in my way, sounds like a dream come true. I love everything about Brigador, I love that it’s a throwback to top down isometric shooters with an emphasis on destruction, I love its neon bright art style, and I really love its 80’s inspired, synth-heavy soundtrack.
