Hotline Miami

This top-down slasher/shooter pairs a neon-flavored electronic aesthetic with unlockable, gameplay-changing masks and weapons. You play a hitman who receives anonymous calls directing him to specific homes and criminal hideouts to massacre everyone inside, all while he is haunted by surreal visions and unsettling inconsistencies—with no clear answers of how, why, or who.

In an alternate 1989 Miami, you play as a mysterious antihero driven into a brutal rampage against the city’s shady underworld, guided by cryptic messages left on your answering machine. As the violence escalates, you begin to lose your grasp on what’s really happening—and why you’re compelled to keep killing.
