The badness of this game is so complete it’s mystifying. In fact, it could be the only thing really complete about this game.

And don’t think that it’s eye-poppingly gorgeous graphics that are dragging the system down. The graphics are extremely dated, with jagged polygon pedestrians and boxy items sprinkled liberally throughout the game world.

Assuming you can gag down the poor visuals, the game’s controls don’t make the pill any less bitter to swallow.

And it just never gets any better. The missions don’t make a lot of sense, they’re poorly laid out, and thanks to Boiling Point’s inane skill system, many of them are virtually impossible.

But Boiling Point: Road To Hell is bound to sit in the annals of poor gaming history, next to Trespasser, Daikatana, and other games that were hyped more than they were worked on, and left the gaming populace hungry for real sustenance.​
