Fun, but developer seriously needs to tweak the spawn behavior you will have the best build and instantly kill anyone near you then a horde of enemies will drop down on top of you and instantly end your run

What the ♥♥♥♥ did you just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ say about me, you little ♥♥♥♥♥? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the ♥♥♥♥ out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ words. You think you can get away with saying that ♥♥♥♥ to me over the Internet? Think again, ♥♥♥♥♥♥. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your “life”. You’re ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little ♥♥♥♥. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idiot. I will ♥♥♥♥ fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dead, kiddo.

It's decent but it feels like a really low budget unreal asset store game

lack of weapons and workshop support really detract from replayability

the individual missions on each map are kinda cool and appealing but there just isnt enough content here to suggest this game for the retail cost
especially if you are considering playing solo

hopefully the devs keep updating and make this game reach its potential

Take-Two and 2K games (including Gearbox & Rockstar Games) have silently updated all their games' Terms of Service, turning this game as well as all of their other games into software capable of data farming. Additionally, their Privacy Policy mentions sharing data with ad networks and marketing analytics; it is very explicit that they intend to farm data from you and use it for frivolous monetary gain.

***While Take‑Two disclaims using "spyware", they explicitly reserve broad permissions to monitor, record, store, and analyze user data: including voice, gameplay, and profiles. That’s not spyware in the "deliberately malicious" sense, but it’s still sweeping surveillance capability permitted by legal provisions you agree to.

abandoned by developer

Fun game but balancing is atrocious right now
pretty much every kind besides king of nothing feels really unbalanced and almost unwinnable

It's fun for a quick playthrough

game has some weird pacing issues towards the middle of the game though
and there is a bug where when quick restarting the game doesn't deduct currency making it even slower
(game hasn't been updated since December 14, 2024 and I don't see it happening anytime soon)

the ending feels really abrupt could've easily added a few more skills to the prestige tree and another area or two and potentially doubled playtime or increase it by another hour or half hour if nothing else

also frustrating how many of the items in the game are repeated

I think its good value for 2$

though I can't recommend it as the developer seems to have abandoned it

Game doesn't launch on windows 11

Extremely Long early access period
Updates becoming slower and slower
Little faith in this usurping its predecessor

developers recently announced kickstarter for postal 2 remaster killing the small glimmer of hope I had in this becoming playable through updates
