Overview
Description

POSTAL casts the user as a nameless surrogate character brought to the breaking point when his home in Paradise, Arizona is unjustly repossessed. Believing the repossession is part of a demonic conspiracy to dominate humanity, he unleashes relentless vengeance across 17 distinct locations. Navigate through a small town to a heavily guarded military complex using a third-person premeditated perspective. Employ strategic combat tactics against armed locals in this intense indie action horror experience developed by Running With Scissors.

Set on a colonized Mars, Red Faction: Guerrilla puts you in the shoes of a freedom fighter battling the oppressive Earth Defense Force. The game blends fast‑paced shooting with a fully destructible environment, letting you topple structures and reshape the battlefield. With both single‑player and multiplayer modes, you can wage guerrilla warfare solo or team up with friends to cause chaos across the sprawling, open‑world city of Las Almas. The title’s physics‑driven destruction and vehicle combat keep the action fresh from start to finish.
