RICO

Know somebody who might be like this game?

Summary

RICO is an arcade-style, first-person shooter inspired by modern action cinema. In the game you and a friend play as a pair of loose-cannon police partners, given twenty-four hours to crack a case as part of an elite organised crime taskforce.

Planning is tactical rather than strategic, players must react in the moment to shootouts as they unfurl, with additional extra time to assess the situation if they are able to surprise their adversaries. Ammo and enemies are plentiful, and combat is punchy and impactful, supported by an extensive destruction system that ensures every shot looks and feels great.

Good gunplay and I really like the procedurally generated areas with differing objectives, which ensure never the same area twice. A hugeGood gunplay and I really like the procedurally generated areas with differing objectives, which ensure never the same area twice. A huge turnoff for me is that there is much more ammo lying around than health and it's quite easy to be gunned down playing solo; not helped at all but the games's "save" system - which doesn't seem to be present. I completed a case and moved on to the next one, only to be gunned down and having to start completely over every single time. There needs to be a checkpoint system and a way to save in between cases. The graphics are so-so, but they honestly don't need that much spit and polish for this style of game, so I had tempered expectations going in. A drawback to the graphics is that it is difficult or nigh impossible to see an enemy clear across a well-lit room.Overall, fun game with very frustrating difficulty curve.

No Don't buy this. waste of money, there's barley anything to offer. Not worth $20, you will only have 1 hour of fun and then completelyNo Don't buy this. waste of money, there's barley anything to offer. Not worth $20, you will only have 1 hour of fun and then completely forget about the game, tedious as hell. I would give this a better review if there was more to offer, then just kicking down the same doors over and over and over and shooting the same bad bikers over and over. really if you like games where you do the same thing for hours on end, Then play this game to the end of time. and I know how its CO OP but really I just wanted to play this by myself and relax, instead I fell asleep and wasted 2 hours looking at the menu screen.

A cooperative shooter with large doses of cooperative frantic action is Rico's initial proposal that, as we can see when playing the title, does not make it stand out in the eShop. More innovation would have been a positive point for the game.
