The story
Serious Sam Classics: Revolution is a unified version of the Croteam's original Serious Sam Classic: The First Encounter and Serious Sam Classic: The Second Encounter experience, which is currently in development by Alligator Pit, an indie development team made of Serious Sam fans with the support of Croteam. Serious Sam Classics: Revolution, along with newly developed content by Alligator Pit, also includes all levels from both Classics and is powered by an updated Serious Engine 1 featuring all-new advanced graphics shader support, full 64-bit compatibility, full Steamworks integration, and lots of bug fixes for a superior game experience. Serious Sam Classics: Revolution is a standalone product and it is completely free to those Steam users that already own both original Serious Sam Classic games on Steam (Serious Sam Classic: The First Encounter and Serious Sam Classic: The Second Encounter). Development team Alligator Pit is comprised of Angelo, Rakanishu, Bromvlieg, Solais and many other dedicated Serious Sam fans from around the world. Serious Sam is a high-adrenaline old-school arcade-action shooter heavily focused on frantic arcade-style action. Serious Sam travels through the beautiful landscapes of Ancient Egypt, Mayan Civilization, Persian Empire and Medieval Europe, confronting the countless numbers of Mental's hordes hell-bent on destroying the human race. You are Sam "Serious" Stone. Welcome to the fight!
What it’s like
Bright, sun-scorched arenas stretch under open skies, with sandstone temples, Mayan stepped pyramids, Persian courtyards and medieval towns all rendered in saturated, slightly chunky old-engine geometry, now with smoother modern lighting. The camera sits in a steady third-person view, so every space reads at a glance, and the frame often fills with hundreds of small, bright, screaming enemies. Sound is loud and bombastic: pounding percussion, blaring riffs, and a steady stream of wisecracks from the hero. Pacing is relentless, with short breathers between swarm fights and no quiet stretches to speak of. The tone is gleefully over-the-top, closer to a B-movie than to dread, and the violence is frequent, bloody and cartoonishly exaggerated, with heads and limbs flying in heaps of gore rather than any real horror. Expect constant high intensity and a lot of noise, with no tension or lingering darkness. It suits a loud weekend session, a scratch of adrenaline after work, or a co-op night with friends, and it is for players who want old-school arcade chaos with a comic streak.
