Red Faction is a first-person shooter that was developed by John Romero of Doom (1993, MS-DOS) fame.
+ The bite-sized levels are just the right length for mobile play, and also help to limit the frustration when you do have to restart a mission.+ The large amount of weapons gives you a myriad of combat options and there's many secrets to be found by blowing up walls.
- Level design constantly repeats textures, and the underwater Power Plant mission controls so poorly that it borders on unplayable.
- Manual targeting is frustrating due to the lack of horizontal aim precision and the fact your character bobs left/right as he moves.
- Automatic targeting is useless, as it frequently refuses to lock-on to an enemy until you've taken damage.
- Similarly, opponents have a sixth-sense, making it almost impossible for you to peek around a corner without immediate health loss.
- You'll quickly tire of hearing the same enemy voice clips, and the music loops are short to the point of annoyance.
