  Not a Hero: Super Snazzy Edition is a vulgar, violent game, but the pixelated and colorful presentation—coupled with its sharp sense of humor—help to keep the tone light. I was pleasantly surprised by the snappy, addictive gameplay when I first dug into it, and although its repetitive nature and a couple annoying design choices and glitchy controls did temper that, it remained a fun game to play throughout.

  There’s no getting away from the fact that Not a Hero: Super Snazzy Edition is a reissue of a game that’s already been out for years on other platforms, so if you’ve already emptied its virtual clips before there’s not much here to coax you back in (bar the fact you can now enjoy it on a portable console). However, if you’ve yet to sign up to BunnyLord’s mayoral bloodbath you’re in for an ultraviolent treat.

  Not a Hero: Super Snazzy Edition really is a fantastic game and it is perfect on the Switch. The humor, the fast and brutal gameplay, and the wonderful cast of characters definitely make it a must own if you’re looking for a fun action shooter. Unfortunately, it has a couple gameplay annoyances and some repetitive level design hampering it.

  It feels wrong to end this review on such a tired phrase, but your mileage may vary regarding Not a Hero. I enjoyed it but it didn’t grab me like similar games such as Mercenary Kings did. If you like comically-violent, pixelated shooters, you might try this out, but I suspect it’s playing to a crowd that doesn’t necessarily include me.

  If you missed out on Not A Hero elsewhere, then this is the version to get. It might not live up to its subtitle of Super Snazzy, but this is a slightly snazzier version of Roll7’s great shooter. It’s a shame that there isn’t more of a reason to double dip, though, as playing as BunnyLord is an enticing extra. Even if it’s one that’s separate from the main game.

  A unique experience is to be found in Not a Hero. The elective journey through waves of opposition just proves how fun a small title can be and the added content provided a little extra for those who are yet to pick up the title on other platforms. While it has a few minor faults, they don't overshadow the experience, and it is a thoroughly commendable run and gun platformer.
