Crusty Proto sees you attempting to flee a metropolis overrun by zombies, besides one thing appears to be hilariously off in regards to the recreation’s programming.
You and a few pals narrowly keep away from getting assaults, holing up inside a store. You determine to search for a approach to get out of there, however set off an alarm that will get your friends killed. Issues appear tense on this second as you rush to keep away from the undead horde, however odd messages maintain popping up. A useless physique with a gun appears to be dancing and flopping on the bottom. Perhaps one thing isn’t loading proper? Is the sport appearing up? It’s arduous to inform for the primary couple of minutes, however the goofy occasions don’t actually let up.
The sport is a strong tackle previous PlayStation horror video games, having you gun down zombies (in a method that’s additionally comical in its personal proper), however the continuous error messages add more and more weird visible quirks and occasions to the sport. Enemies will pile up in weird methods or mash collectively. Generally you’re the sufferer of those errors, discovering your self wriggling alongside the bottom like a fish after a loss of life state doesn’t load. The sport straddles this glorious line between a severe, nerve-wracking expertise as you attempt to survive, however then some new error will pop up and one other laugh-out-loud occasion will occur.
Crusty Proto is kind of temporary, however crams itself stuffed with absurd moments that stored shocking me all through the sport. I actually simply loved taking part in by way of one thing that felt immediately acquainted and enjoyable on account of my love of older horror titles, however its humorousness within the errors and the pure ridiculous pleasure you get when a personality begins bugging out within the recreation put an enormous smile on my face as I performed. In case you like horror with a foolish humorousness, it’s a good time.
