Review Quotes

"One of the worst shooters of this generation. The clue really is in the name..."—CVGCVG: Damnation Reviews (May 22, 2009)

"Even after looking for a glimmer of quality, hoping that there'd be some redeeming feature to balance out this avalanche of weary criticism, Damnation offers little to which to cling. At best, it's a functional third-person platformer that sometimes acts like a shooter. At worst, it's an astonishing collection of poor design decisions, half-hearted implementation and mindless narrative clutter that will only lead to buyer's remorse in all who decide to give it a try."—EurogamerEurogamer: Damnation Review (May 20, 2009)

About the Game

Damnation is a steampunk game set in an alternate United States where the Civil War never ended and the country is in a complete state of chaos. Players take on the role of Hamilton Rourke, a disgraced soldier who is opposed to the plans of the dictator Prescott.

The game features a multiplayer co-op mode that allows players to share the entire campaign with a friend. During the single-player campaign, Rourke encounters a number of NPCs who help him on his quest for a period of time. In multiplayer, the second player takes control of the NPCs. Of course, there are the classic multiplayer modes players expect, but tweaked to make use of Damnation's unique gamplay elements. There are ziplines, ropes, and huge scalable structures.GameTrailers.com: Damnation Producer Interview (Time: 4:22)
