Rico London is a gang-busting, name-taking, explosive cooperative shooter. Blast your way up the highrise tower stacked with East End gangsters solo or with a partner. Crash through doors, dodge bullets, turn the weapons of the fallen into your personal arsenal, and do whatever it takes to make it to the top.

I'm not sure if I've ever seen a sequel that was this stripped down. The non-linear levels from the original Rico are gone, as are weapon loadouts, maps of level layouts and the horde mode. All you're left with is a campaign made up of ninety minutes of slow-motion breaching and clearing and a "Daily Play" mode that is a twenty-minute variation of the campaign.
That said, as someone who isn't a big fan of roguelikes, the option to play the campaign without permadeath meant I had more fun with Rico London than its predecessor. If I'd paid $35 for this at launch I would probably be harsher on it, but for about 60 cents as part of a Fanatical bundle, it was a decent two-hour time-killer.

Graphics, effects are ok. But everything is very monotonous, you will literally have to do the same thing in the same location 100 times+I had bugs that prevented me from completing the game.
