9 itemsAbout the Game
Hard as Hell is a game where you play as a store owner trying to make ends meet in the bustling C.R.T. City in the year 1999. However, a wave of goons overtake the vulnerable city, and you’re forced to defend your store against waves of destructive enemies.
Blending FPS and tower defence mechanics, Hard as Hell lets you explore C.R.T. city at night, gathering resources and recruiting volunteers to fortify your shop. During the day, you’ll fight off waves of attackers from either the roof of your store or down in the streets, engaging in close combat. In Hard as Hell you must hold out for eight days, with each day becoming more challenging as the attackers grow in strength and numbers.
The gameplay draws inspiration from classic 90s FPS titles, delivering that nostalgic feel. Don your bandana, and fight to protect your store in this intense gauntlet.
