Gotham City Impostors: Free-To-Play, It's Fun, It's Whacky, It's Weird

If you like playing weird and funny online first-person shooting games then you should check-out Gotham City Imposters. It's a Free-To-Play online FPS game and, I called it weird and funny because you'll get to wear the costumes of Gotham City's famous and infamous personalities namely the Batman and the Joker.

Gotham City Impostors is a fast-paced first-person shooter with tons of extra stuff that were taken or inspired by the Dark Knight. For example, you'll be able to use boomerangs, grappling hooks and other weird looking homemade gadgets. These gadgets will help you fight crime in Gotham City. In fact, you can even glide through the air like the Batman.

Like most first-person shooters, you'll be fighting alongside other players in one of two teams and these two teams are called the Batz and the Jokerz. Before a match starts, the game will randomly assign you to one of these two teams. Don't worry about how you'll look because the game will automatically switch your costume from either the Batman or the Joker.

Speaking of costumes, you'll have two sets of costumes available to you. One set is based on the Batman's costume and the other set is based on the Joker's costume. You'll start with the default look of the two costume sets but you'll be able to customize any of them as you play the game.

Gotham City Impostors has a good collection of weapons to choose from like rifles, submachine guns, shotguns, snipers, launchers, etc. and you can also modify or customize them. Unfortunately, you'll have to unlock new weapons either by gaining levels or by completing certain missions.

The game is Free-To-Play and that means you don't have to spend anything to enjoy it but if you want to unlock certain items immediately then you can always buy it with real cash from STEAM. Remember, purchasing items from the game to enhance your game is not BAD.

Other players might loot at it as Pay2Win but if no one pays or buys anything with real money then the game won't survive long. Think of it as supporting the game so that you and your friends (and those whiny little kids) can continue playing the game for FREE. He he he.

Gotham City Impostors currently has 6 game modes and these are Team Deathmatch, Fumigation, Psych Warfare, Bounty Hunter, Challenges and Initiation. I've only tried two of these game mode, Team Deathmatch and Initiation.

Initiation is just a tutorial where you'll learn all the tricks in surviving Gotham City like using the grappling hook, gliding in the air, jumping on trampolines and even skating. Initiation can be a fun experience that's why new players should definitely go through it.

Unfortunately, Gotham City Impostors isn't a game for me. Don't get me wrong, it's a fun game but I'm not a big fan of the style of the game. It just feels too weird and cartoony for me.

Anyway, I want you to try the game before passing judgement on it. It may not be for me but, who knows, it could be the perfect game for you.

It's free-to-play and you can easily download it from STEAM.
