Steam reviews

What players say

Overwhelmingly positive: players love its early-2000s shooter feel, fast one-gun combat and soundtrack, though the final levels and boss draw consistent complaints.

Many players describe SPRAWL zero as a tribute to mid-2000s shooters, comparing it to Half-Life 2, Halo, FEAR and Killzone. What they enjoy most is the combat loop: you carry only one gun, throw it when empty and pull a new one from the air with the gravity gloves, while bullet time and punches keep you moving and restore health. The soundtrack and the grungy cyberpunk level design are praised repeatedly, and several reviewers call it one of the best shooters of the year. Complaints centre on the last two levels, which some find empty and repetitive, and on the final boss, whose attacks are hard to read and whose monologue cannot be skipped. Some players also mention aim assist, unevenly tuned weapons and a few clunky mechanics. Recent reviews are more mixed than the older helpful ones, with more players saying the gameplay grows stale towards the end.

Praised

  • One-gun combat loop

    Throwing empty guns and grabbing new ones with the gravity gloves makes firefights fast, improvised and satisfying.

    Many players
  • Early-2000s feel

    The level design, graphics and tone evoke Half-Life 2, Halo, FEAR and Killzone without copying them outright.

    Many players
  • Soundtrack

    Players repeatedly praise the electronic and drum-and-bass soundtrack, which suits the action well.

    Many players
  • Bullet time and abilities

    Slow-motion kills restore health and abilities stay useful throughout, so the powers never feel like filler.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Last levels and final boss

    The closing levels feel empty and repetitive, and the boss has hard-to-read attacks and an unskippable monologue.

    Many players
  • Gameplay gets stale

    Players say the combat grows repetitive over the campaign and the objectives pad the playtime.

    Some players
  • Weapon balance and aim assist

    Some weapons are far too strong or useless, and aim assist made combat play itself until a patch made it switchable.

    Some players
  • Movement and clambering

    Clambering locks you out of all actions, and sliding and sprinting feel awkward compared with the first game.

    A few players
Who it suits
Fans of early-2000s single-player shooters and anyone who enjoys fast, improvised combat and a strong soundtrack.
Who should skip it
Players who want deep story, a long campaign or polished late-game content should look elsewhere.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with more hours tend to criticise the repetitive final levels and boss more, while shorter-playtime reviewers praise the first chapters.
