Killer is Dead is an action game that is no sequel to Killer7 or the No More Heroes series by the same developers, but shares elements such as violent action, a main character wielding a katana as the most prominent weapon, assassins as an important theme, and a cel shaded visual style. The game is divided into 12 episodes in locations all over the world and stars Mondo Zap as the main character. He is a contract executioner who works for the he Bryan Execution Firm. The game is set in the future and Monda receives jobs to kill cyborgs and assassins. Before each mission a brief overview of the objective is shown against a world map and in between the fighting there are often animated sequences that further the story.

I gave this a good try, but i just can't like it.The gameplay is mediocre, if you're expecting a Devil May Cry or a God of War - the combatI gave this a good try, but i just can't like it.The gameplay is mediocre, if you're expecting a Devil May Cry or a God of War - the combat just doesn't deliver. It's a button masher, and I couldn't make it into anything more, no matter how much I tried to use special abilities and attacks, (and I have plenty of experience with action games.) Controls were fine with a controller, (I can't speak for M&B - i didn't try), but it was just boring.As far as art assets and story go... Someone compared this to Lynch.. This is NOT Lynch. Lynch has a soul, and a certain depth... This just felt like someone found an equation for surreal art and simply followed it, without actually believing in it. Random stories, obscure humor, characters that have no explanation of why they are there and who are they really, just a ton of disconnected strings all over that don't make up a cohesive whole. I mean, maybe some people are into that, but I'm not, so I can't recommend this. I love Magritte, and Lynch, and in their surreal there is at least something that ties everything together. This game is more like someone just colored a canvas black, added a big red circle, then decided to add a robot arm, and then thought let's throw a unicorn in there for the hell of it, because why not.I guess I'll give this game some points, but only because it's at least something I haven't seen before. And there were some decent comic-book-style cutscene shots that were visually well delivered, I guess. But overall - it was a pretty mediocre ride on most accounts.

I don't get why are you complaining about, the port is good, it has a good Mouse and Keyboard controls unlike the other Japanese hack andI don't get why are you complaining about, the port is good, it has a good Mouse and Keyboard controls unlike the other Japanese hack and slash games.And stop lying, this game has no glitch.All this negative user scores are made by a butthurt console gamers, the question is, why? Are you butthurt because this game was released on PC?
