About

God Mode is set in a twisted version of Greek mythology and the afterlife. The player is a descendant of an ancient God whose family has been banished by Hades from Mt. Olympus and turned into a mere mortal. To avoid an afterlife of eternal damnnation, the player must battle through this purgatory known as the Maze of Hades against an army of the underworld.

    God Mode offers a decent amount of fast-paced fun for an agreeable price, but it isn't long before the tedium of repeating the same five levels starts to set in. In time, even the tests of faith and the oaths can't hold this sensation at bay. But if you're only looking for a few hours of entertaining mindless horde shooting, God Mode generally does a decent job of providing it.

    God Mode is a game that wants a quarter slot and a cabinet, preferably one of the wide ones that can comfortably fit four players. It’s possible to play God Mode in single player, although not particularly fun, but multiplayer works nicely. Getting a group of friends of working with a selection of random people can lead to some good times, if you coordinate your destructive output.

    The aesthetics of the game create an illusion of quality. God Mode, at its core, feels as cheap as the price tag might suggest. The one-note shooting can’t sustain the game through all five maps. I’m not sure I feel comfortable recommending God Mode to anyone but a bored gamer looking for a single night of fun with friends. A couple of times while playing God Mode I saw what the game might have been. Unfortunately, thanks to odd design choices, Atlus’ shooter doesn’t live up to its potential.

    Playing solo is incredibly difficult and very little fun, and once people stop playing on Live, God Mode’s as good as dead

    God Mode can only gaze up at true online divinity, but it’s a morsel of cheap mortal pleasure while it lasts.

    The biggest complaint I have is a lack of variety, which is to be expected of a budget title. What Old School Games did include in this straightforward, arcade-centric shooter shows promise of a more fleshed-out project. There's also a hint of personality with a goofy narrator, but the execution isn't quite there. God Mode is an easy recommendation to make for those who want relatively mindless entertainment -- just don't go in expecting much more than that.
