(Game Review) 🎮 My Friend Pedro, A game of pure action, with a Jhon Wick style 🎯

My Friend Pedro, is an action game in the style of movies like The Matrix or John Wick, where reigns the shootings and action scenes that invite us to continue sitting down to play or to play again and again, It was developed by the house DeadToast Entertainmen, its premise is simple to immerse the viewer in action scenes where we must demonstrate that not only are we the best killer, but also that we are accurate and we can do it with elegance and style. My Friend was developed with the Unity engine and launched in 2019, its acceptance was immediate receiving critical acclaim. If action is your thing, this game is for you.

My Friend Pedro, does not present a script that we should highlight or at least it is not an ultra complex story, the game leaves aside the narrative and focuses fully on the action. Our character wakes up without memory, we don't know his name or why he is in that state, out of nowhere a magic banana named Pedro appears and guides us through a path full of action and death. The game doesn't waste time making introductions or presenting cinematic scenes, it only starts with action and ends with action, the most information of the plot is gathered in different moments of the game and it is not something that surprises a lot.

My Friend Pedro, is an action game, which contains elements of other genres such as Arcade and its graphic development is in 2D and 3D graphics, presenting in its mechanics of lateral scrolling movements. Our character can activate the Bullet Time (if the effect used in The Matrix) to perform different movements during the confrontation and to be able to make multiple shots. The game presents a medium-high difficulty, we must learn to master the controls as we play. An interesting element is that we can bounce the bullets on any surface to hit an enemy. My Friend Pedro, in John Wick's own style, can use any object present on the stage to kill his opponents, which is why our battle system is not tied to guns, although we can unlock a wide variety of them. By taking elements from the Arcade the game presents us with a final score system which can lead us to play again to beat our previous record.

The visual section does not offer anything revolutionary, nor do we expect to be able to compare its graphic section with AAA games. It presents us with scenarios with striking colors with elements that seek to place it in a futuristic context. The scenarios have little or nothing to do with each other, what is constant is the color palette used to give an impertinent touch to the graphic section. The point that stands out is the finish to the special effects when we face our enemies and above all know how to make the transitions from Time Bullet to Matrix style.

My Friend Pedro, presents a soundtrack adjusted to its history and graphic section. It has an electronic influence which gives mobility and distinction to the action scenes, as if it were an action scene from The Matrix or even a Jhon Wick film. A separate point is that within the game there are melodies that do not quite fit, composed as if it were a child's game that does not go with the theme. It is not the best soundtrack or the one one one can widely recommend, but it does its job. In the section of sounds they present good fidelity and variety.

My Friend Pedro, is a game that will make us feel like Rambo or John Wick to be more current, is a game that stands out for its insane pace in combat, if our thing is to shoot and kill, here we will, but with a refined style. At the end of the game it will not give a score which will encourage us to improve ourselves again and again, it is not a long game, but it is entertaining at all times. My friend pedro is not an innovative game, but it brings shots, action and a music that makes us feel like in an action movie.
