And by the end. Closer to end. I think it is almost end already. Sam starts to make a surprise again! Theme is changing! From bright jungles. To the gothic dark Quake, and next to winter theme. And hell caves. As in role playing games about Dungeons and Dragons. Saying short, it is lots of things to go! Such a full scale huge levels. With most different themes. Wow! I was very surprised!

There are even there a iced freeze lake. It looks like it is endless. It is huge. And at the middle it is building there. And there you are sliding along the ice. And as it is a rule here - crowds of enemies. Waves with enemies from all the sides.
And to the forward places. There are caves there. They are already in a fire. This is already like role playing game. About dungeons. Like it is RPG. Some elements of fire. As first boss in Quake. It reminds a lot high quality role playing game screenshot.
If to make them this way. And cave is three dimensional there. Ifrit such a huge. And there are lots of them. He throws with a fire balls at you. All around you - it is lava. And you there, go higher by the stones. By a little road. You can fall. It is very atmosphere moment!

Serious Sam second encounter – puzzles, Babylon new style and sunny action
Second game about Sam. It is such a funny shooter. This time not Egypt. But also, ancient world. With another style. Everything is beautiful. And visual style of this ancient land is very interesting. This is beautiful. And this is not Egypt.
And, once more, to compare with first encounter. It is for surprise another thing goes! Well, it is some point similar for the first encounter. But also, it changes very fast. It is huge locations. As fields. There are lots of this. It is also rooms with enemy waves. Yes, this is also is here. And my big surprise - there are more puzzles here. You need to do fast and right things.
Game is different from first encounter. Also, with the graphics. Also, about game process too. There is new graphics. New quality of graphics. New art. New style. This is amazing! And huge locations. You run by field from one pyramid to another one, for example.
So, this is Babylon. This is a map here. Level. Such big one. Open space labyrinth. I can call it as open space labyrinths. There are lots of space here. With open air. And even they let you run from map borders. This is funny. And you are even get lost for some time. Well, I just left the map border. And do I do it right way? But, well, I can move. And, there are even items here. And enemies too. So, looks like, I can be here! This is exciting!
With these ideas Sam makes a surprise. With such a things. Puzzles. Walls with gravitations. You are walking, but walls with thorns are attracting. Or it is blowing a wind and you fly through corridor. And there are holes there. And you need avoid them! And not from the first attempt, I complete these places. But I remember it!
Big locations. A lot to run! Lots of enemies. And such a blue style in some buildings. Sumerians, Babylon, Aztecs. This game has its own style. This is exciting style! And new! Egypt, of course, is well known for everyone. This is often to use. And here we see another ancient places.
And about a weapons, there are lots of new here. Lots. It plays different. And new enemies. Sam makes lots of jokes here. He, almost, speaks. He speaks cool phrases. There is this point with first part too. But it is more of this here. So, we have here such a funny and action movie from VHS cassette. This is like low budget movie, which you like a lot. Which, really, moves you! I like Sam!
With one hand simply character – white t shirt, short haircut and jeans. And with another hand – it is very funny, style little game. Egypt. Such a cool style. Here – its own ancient lands. Babylon, Sumerians, Aztecs. Its own stylization points. And very beautiful style.
And, I am playing with most easy level difficulty – this is tourist. Good mode to simply play with weekend. One more find point of developers. Comfort game mode. To see the game. And just to play hard.
And here, and with first part. There were moments. They, looks like, Star Wars. Already, blockbuster. Space scale, but with ancient world. Robots, space soldiers. It is sad, that such amazing engine, not used with other games. So easy to make a game about Star Wars. Like Dark Forces. Jedi. Or another science fiction. If I ever can to make, I dream to do Star Wars kind something with such cool engine. It is sad that I do not have skills. Fantastic shooters. As VHS movies. Game engine, it asks for this.
And, now, I am playing. And I like a lot. It is everything is so bright and sunny. And lots of enemies. Full relax. With mode tourist. At the evening. Or after countryside, already at home. And forward to play!

Serious Sam second encounter – significant final and necromance in the end!
With my weened I decide to play Serious Sam second encounter. With a mode tourist. For weekend – to be a tourist, it is best thing ever. As a real thing. This is such a light cruise game mode. Simply you run with levels and have fun. As idea. With the vision to spent weekend most funny way – it is best thing. Or simply to get some kind of positive! It goes very good!
Last time, I played this game, month ago or pair of months ago. It was a summer. I almost get to the most end. And there I stopped. So it is a time right now – to finish, what I start. Well, it is a most easy difficulty level, this is also a bonus.
So, it is from the first glance, easy to get, that it will be here something unbelievable and epic. So a plain and it is long. Rectangle form. And corridor it is, as we can see. Sky. And lets go forward. Lots lots of enemies! I even several times fail this. Or not reach the end. We walk and walk. Only forward!
And later, we have something like a break, free time, timeout. Some locations. And again a big field. As a football field. This is beautiful. Such a gothic cathedral. Lighting strikes. Weather is changing for the lighting. Lightings strikes. And at the middle – such a ruins. You can use it as a base, fortress, to use this, as a rule. There is supply of ammunition there. And lightings also hits the enemies.
And it will be here lots of enemies! It will last long, also! Enemies goes with a waves! You will destroy them all! Epic battle and day and night it goes. Once again, at first, long arena as a corridor. And now as a football field with fort in the middle. And enemies waves, waves!
And this is not the end of the list. These stages are rather long. Even for a tourist. And later – so he is – final boss. Some kind of warlock, sorcerer. Type Darth Vader but fantasy. Something of a death with a КОСА. Or magician. Necromancer. Something like this. Final boss. So you can here push off from borders of arena.
And it plays epic music. Graphics is beautiful. So light map is here – for a mood. Before the lighting sky I remember a lot. Soo this is great sky texture. It is exciting. Green little grass. So, soon soon it will start a rain. Or hail. Well, or lighting. So, it will be a lighting here. And you are, like a last and final time, you go. Burst through huge amount of enemies waves. Even sometimes you ask yourself – will this ever end?
There is an amazing gothic cathedral. In the end. And we are going to this thing. So slowly to approach. And firm card of Sam – enemies waves. This is very good! And this is me to remember! My impressions for weekend. So I complete such a football with enemies waves.
Of course, it goes here intense action. With little music. Waves with enemies. So this kind of style has Sam. And I like this little game! This is a feature. There are lots of weapons here. You can use two barreled shotgun. Or this laser thing as Star Wars. Rocket launcher is here. There is machinegun, which is of course, is very good.
But it fly away very fast. Yes, there is a bonus with speed up. Arena is big. If to be clever and use this bonus – so it will be very useful. This is a joke kind a cannon ball is here. You can roll it. As I can describe this. And all the enemies are here. Running skeletons, as a horses. Humans there are, these without heads, mountain reptiloids, which green cloth are throwing. Of course, blue and red robots.
At the final, it awaits you -marathon intense run. And full pack. As I can say. And so I can say, make a boost before new working week. I complete little game. It is so bright and different. Ancient world, castle. So, final I remember a lot too. And even at the end -there is such mage necromancer.
Intro at the end, cinematic. It will be also funny and final closing credits. I am, of course, I want continue, certain style of first two parts. As I can say, if it ever was a little game like first Quake or Doom 1,2. So I want to see one day third encounter. Also such bright and colorful. With different themes. With ancient world. And as a action movie B category, always you can watch it again and again!

Modern system, gaming year - Serious Sam makes two
I haven't played as much this year. I've been studying more. But I still played. I played Steam and GoG on a modern Atlus H376 computer. I mostly played on weekends. And it was also summer. I came home from the dacha on Sunday and started playing games. For example, Serious Sam: The First and Second encouters. I even finished them. They're so summery.
It just so happened that the Steam games of the year are Serious Sam: The First encouter and Serious Sam: The Second encouter . And the rally racer WRC6. In the middle, as they say, between summer shooters. Then there's the racing game Rush Rally 3. I also played Left 4 Dead and Counter-Strike Source intermittently. I tried a variety of games. Everything was essentially new to me. I played Ragnarok Online this summer. I still have that game. And it's still going strong! I've tried inexpensive trash games, and a wide variety of genres. Quests, roguelikes, shooters, racing games, arcade games.
In GoG, I'd highlight Sacred Gold. It's a wonderful fantasy game. We run across plains like Diablo 2 and there are tons of monsters. It's just what I love, just like in some ad. Overall, I didn't play much because I was studying. But if you do everything right and study well, then you can relax well too. And play something in the evening. Maybe I'll even get around to that someday.
Hit of the season. Summer season. This is Serious Sam: The First encouter and The Second encouter . These are my summer hits. Killer, hot action. Everything is fun there. Summer weather. Egypt. Desert. Forest, grass. Field. Almost like at the dacha. That's why I played these games in the summer.
In this game, we'll go on a journey through the ancient world. We'll visit Ancient Egypt as a tourist, for example. We'll see the pyramids. By the way, I played on Tourist difficulty. It's essentially the easiest game mode. Perfect for a weekend getaway.
What's interesting is that besides the pyramids, there's time travel. And reptilians. My thing. I really like them. As they say. And then there are other ancient worlds. Egypt—that's the ethos of its own style. Other similar ancient countries. The Sumerians, with their own style. Ancient Babylon. It's all very engaging, too. The game plays smoothly and well.
Some might say that The Second encouter is like an add-on, like just levels. But I thought so too until I played it. This is the first time I've played these games fully. And I was so captivated that I even beat them. The Second encouter is actually somewhat similar to The First encouter . Yes, there is that. But it's also a different time, and it plays differently. There, it starts in the fields. In the forests. The Mayans. An ancient civilization. They had pyramids too. The gameplay feels a little different. It's a new gaming experience.
So if you played the first encouter , you'll like the second encouter . But the second encouter isn't just a collection of levels. It's essentially a sequel. A sequel like a full-fledged game. That is, it has its own gameplay features. And it's significantly different. Both games are slightly different. And they're excellent shooters. Both are recommended for fans of shooter games.
It's interesting how the second encouter is made. There's the second half of the game. There's a lot of new stuff. The first half is a vibrant summer. And then it gets all sorts of different. Gothic, like the first Quake. With humor. Like a Halloween party.
There will be a castle. There will be a dungeons-and-dragons role-playing theme. A cave. Ifrits, demons made of fire and stone. There will also be a winter theme. I think there was a snowman somewhere. A game with humor.
Moreover, the first encouter is completely in the traditions of the ancient world and action cinema. And the Second encouter is like a cool blockbuster sequel. It continues the theme. And changes things up a bit. And then adds a lot of new stuff. Against the backdrop of such masterpieces, I don't even understand why there isn't a sequel.
A third encouter , a fourth encouter , and so on. The theme is there. And two formats, actually. As the first encouter and as the second encouter . We have two such formats! This summer, I was impressed by Serious Sam.
