Rush'N Attack: Ex-Patriot is pretty short and sits on a weird transition point between a side-scroller and an exploration-based adventure game. It takes a little bit of getting used to, since some of the stealth elements are counterproductive (i.e. if you whistle to lure an enemy over to your hiding place, it also alerts them to your presence, thus ensuring your discovery). It's not a bad use of ten bucks, as it gives you a pretty decent weekend's worth of entertainment.
Rush n' Attack Ex Patriot is a decent game that deserves attention from the fans of arcade platform games, in particular the old ones that 25 years ago wasted all their coins playing Green Beret. Shadow Complex and Bionic Commando Rearmed are in a different league, but it might be worth a try.
Let me be clear. Rush 'N Attack: Ex-Patriot is, overall, not a good game. It has enjoyable moments that are buried under a frustrating control scheme, horrible writing, and a Frankenstein's monster of mechanics that worked well in other games.
Rush'N Attack could have been a nice mix between action, stealth and platforming. But each part of its multifaceted gameplay somehow fails to give us what we expected.
It took Konami 25 years to make a second Rush'N Attack game but this isn't what we were waiting for. The gameplay is very repetitive and the only strenghts of Ex-Patriot are its nice graphics. Definitely not worth your money.
Another unfortunate example of a classic game that has been marred by a shoddy modern redux. [Issue#106, p.124]
No charm or retro value whatsoever. Almost no value at all, in fact. Avoid this one like the plague.
