It’s hard to imagine a battle while keeping thoughts on Christmas scenes. Christmas, as we know it, is about peace, love, unity, and synonyms of such. But it doesn’t make everyone happy when everything just goes good, and those envious folks bear cruel plans on taking your joy away from you and then ruling over you in the new world of darkness and evil.
When dark times approach us, and the values that we cherish are in suddenly danger, it’s our duty to get armed to the teeth and strike back to defend our cultural wealth and the whole lifestyle behind it. Just like in the game with the same name, RIP: Strike Back.
Although the deal is similar (someone wants to be the master of the world, it seems), what’s happening here is way more serious than what happened in Santa movie when an «insane» toy decided to conquer the world with stupid rubber soldiers. In this world, a cruel dictator has conquered the land, banned joyous holidays, including Christmas and Halloween, and now threatens everyone who’d dare to dream about something good with a death penalty. The land has already lost all its heroes, and it seems nobody can help the people rise out of the ashes. The world just keeps falling in the darkness with no hope for the recovery and nothing will change unless you take a stand.
This battle goes far more than that other one with the toys. Here you will fight with laser guns, helicopters, tanks, space shuttles, and all other powerful high-tech weapons that you might have seen in fantasy movies. If you are lucky enough, you will make this land a better place. | | | Learn more about RIP: Strike Back… |
