Immortal Redneck is for the roguelike FPS genre what Spelunky is for platformers – a well-polished game that understands its unusual genre.

Those who appreciate a good, straightforward shooter or a gritty, oldschool dungeon crawler should find plenty of enjoyment from this off-the-wall FPS.
For fans of old school shooters and the rouge-lite setup of games like Rogue Legacy then it's well worth equipping Grandpa's Blunderbuss and venturing into a pyramid filled with adorable but dangerous snakes and flying skulls.
Immortal Redneck manages to feel punishing, yet fair. Rewards are doled out frequently enough that almost every run ends with the ability to upgrade something on the skill tree, allowing the game to maintain a forward momentum that makes it difficult to put down.
As you unlock new characters, bolster your stats and become more knowledgeable about the game, you know victory will one day come, and that makes your desire to keep at it even stronger. Immortal Redneck is perhaps the best roguelike I've ever played because of that fact
It may not immediately strike as a must-play title, but Immortal Redneck shouldn’t be overlooked. With tons of replayability, tense fast-paced gameplay, fluid controls and enjoyable combat, this is a game that will offer great gameplay for hours on end.
Immortal Redneck is a very fun roguelite first-person shooter on Nintendo Switch that you should check out. It's very entertaining, has a lot of content for you to enjoy this procedurally generated release. The game is very addictive, and every time you die you are left with that “just one more run” feeling that is always very fun. During my time playing the game for this review, one night I thought I had played the game for around 30 minutes or so, but when I checked my watch, I realized it was 1:30 a.m. It turns out I had been playing for a couple of hours non-stop!
However, buying enough stat boosts to really feel the impact takes a long time, and long runs that result in no meaningful progress frustrate. If you're looking for a solid, retro-influenced, first person shooter on Switch then this game is worth a look. Just be prepared to die and restart a lot.
Immortal Redneck reached what it aimed for. It challenges you, the addictive gameplay and gunplay makes you come back to its world and thanks to its smart progression system you'll be happy with your time spent. Except some enemy design problems (frogs!) and unfunny jokes, Immortal Redneck succeeds at providing an entertaining experience that doesn't try to have any innovation and remarkable achievement.

Immortal Redneck is a fun fast paced first person shooter, and getting to the top of the pyramid is a huge grind as you will need to spend plenty of money on upgrades to have a shot at reaching the top.
Featuring fast, varied and fun combat, Immortal Redneck stands out as a must-have game for roguelite style lovers. Although it does not stand out in areas other than gameplay, this is not a negative point for a game that knows exactly where to focus its efforts and attract its audience.

Immortal Redneck is a blast of a game in a genre that we don't see enough of. It's not the first roguelike FPS that we've seen on PlayStation 4, and I wouldn't say it's the best, either. It does, however, have an exceptional aesthetic, clever level design, clean action, a decent difficulty curve, and plenty of longevity. A very worthy action game indeed.
It fails to retain any lasting attention, and amounts to something that is fun, but ultimately disappointing.
It goes without saying that there is a lot of replay value in Immortal Redneck. With so many upgrades, characters to buy and three challenging pyramids, it will likely pay for itself (per hours played) before you ever reach the credits.
Overall, the design gymnastics Immortal Redneck puts itself through to blend free-form run and gun gameplay with unforgiving roguelike mechanics can be readily apparent sometimes. More often than not, though, it manages to stand up on its core combat loop. It's fun, it's fast - and that's kind of the only string to Immortal Redneck's banjo, for better or worse.
A fun, simple game, let down by misguided design decisions.
Immortal Redneck is well-crafted with smooth and fast gunplay, a variety of playable characters, and an extensive upgrade tree.
Immortal Redneck absolutely captivated me for several hours. The story isn't really the real thing, but a title like that doesn't need that either. I had my fun with Redneck, his dialect and appearance just fit. In the beginning I was highly motivated to find all the weapons, but unfortunately the content is quickly exhausted, but the scrolls loosen it up a bit, because with every pass there was the moment that I found a new one. That brought back the fun and motivation quickly. The talent tree is nicely built, I like this feature that you can see the tree growing in real life. Also the talents you get are not unnecessary. They feel important and in higher levels they also feel decisive for the game. The blessings bring even more depth to the game, because it makes an extreme difference in the way you play if you choose an offensive or defensive deity. All in all, I had fun with Immortal Redneck, even if I wouldn't have thought so at first, but Immortal Redneck has reached many emotional worlds of mine. I was motivated, challenged and angry. That's why I recommend the game to everyone who has fun with Roguelike titles like The Binding of Isaac or Slay the Spire and no problem with Permadeath and restarts. But you will be rewarded with new weapons and items.

Immortal Redneck is a fun roguelite first person shooter that will provide countless hours of enjoyment for action enthusiasts thanks to its fast paced combat and randomized level layouts.
If you're craving an undemanding shoot 'em up romp that has little time for niceties such as an actual narrative, Immortal Redneck's minimalist carnage just might do the trick.
