KLOV: Track down and destroy enemies one at a time. Enemies usually appear offscreen. When enemies shoot at you, a brief "countdown" will be displayed on the screen, along with a warning sound. You can deflect bullets by pressing the "defend" button, but this uses up some of your ammunition. Shoot boxes to discover bullets and bonus items. Rescue hostages for bonus points. If you reach the final stage, you'll get a chance to take out the crime boss with a single shot.
WIKIPEDIA: The game is set in 1931 New York City where the player controls a young man who must avenge his family members, who were killed in a gang shootout. Over a period of several months, he targets mobsters, culminating with the mafia boss.
Players move a crosshair around the screen to aim and shoot at mobsters one at a time. They lurk around various areas, including on the street and in windows. An arrow appears that helps direct players to the location of the next mobster onscreen. Players have a set amount of time to find and shoot each enemy; if time is running out, a speech bubble appears counting down the last few seconds on the timer. When the timer reaches zero, the player is shot and the screen pans to the location of the enemy. A defend button is available as a last resort to avoid being shot.[6] Players can replenish their ammo by shooting hidden ammunition boxes and get bonus points by shooting at gold bars.
Levels are cleared after a set number of mobsters are eliminated. In the game's final level, the player has only one opportunity to assassinate the mob boss as he walks in front of windows in a building. After the final level is completed, the game loops back to the beginning.
YOU GUYS BETTER DON'T TELL ME YOU DON'T KNOW THIS GAME!!!
(Regardless, this is last popular? game I'm selecting. Next time I have that privilege, I came to conclusion I'm picking another unknown weirdo to give chance to EVERYONE that wants to participate, not just people that know the game so well it's just a showcase of their skills!)
GOOD LUCK!
