I wish I liked this game more then I did because it looks cool and has quite a few cool guns in it but it suffers from inconsistent performance even on the lowest settings and worse than that, it suffers from the same problem Doom Eternal has where it has overly big and confusing level design that makes getting lost way too common.
I really don't see the appeal of movement shooters with big levels but then make navigating said levels difficult as fuck to do.

Lucky for me, this game is actually incredibly polished, genuinely a great game even underneath the original hook of the title! I was honestly partially worried the game wouldn't be all too good and would try to ride off it's gimmick but it doesn't. It's actually an amazing small little 2D adventure game I enjoyed quite alot!
Charming cast of characters and a fun world to explore, totally recommend it!

This game has a wonderful weapon selection and I love it's unique mechanics like the taunt button and the homing attack.
My only real gripe/issue is that Chapter 3's levels are poorly designed and the due to that, I really felt a slog in the latter half of the game but Chapters 1 and 2 are seamless and enjoyable experiences so I'd still recommend this game to anyone interested in a good retro shooter experience.

Honestly a really interesting spin off. I think the story is kind of awkward as it's main conflict between it's two leads feels really contrived and forced but the game overall is alot of fun.
I think the gameplay perfectly transfers the mechanics of the main series into an action game setting, the co-op having a shared health bar really does encourage cooperation and I think alot of the character designs are cool.
My biggest gripe is the platforming/exploration. I felt like at times in the second half that stuff got confusing and some platforming sections felt more difficult than they should've been.
Overall, as someone who's fairly new to Mortal Kombat. I really enjoyed my time with Shaolin Monks even if it isn't perfect.
