Raze is one of the latest online games featured on our site. As it is a very popular free online game and there are no reviews about it yet, the author decided to write one, along with some tips to help you win.

Raze offers more ways to play it and because of this, there will be more reviews about it. This one is written with respect to the human campaign. One of the following reviews will be about the alien campaign and another will talk about playstyles and in-game weapons.

Raze is a free 2D shooter game. While most of the people who commented on this free online game seemed to make a connection between Raze and Halo because of the graphics (yes, Raze does borrow some of the character graphics from Halo), it’s fair to say that this guy game concept was widely publicized. introduced by desktop games like Quake 3 Arena and Unreal Tournament (ok, you might want me to declare Unreal Tournament first … I have the same opinion). Without a doubt, Raze is one of the latest most played online games.

As in all shooter-type games, in Raze it is essential that you understand how to use each weapon and remember the location of the health, shield and damage power-ups. Every now and then in Raze you play alone and sometimes you have team members helping you. Exciting for this king of the free game, it even has an exposed plot by unlocking new levels. I won’t tell you much about it; play Raze and find out for yourself.

Now regarding the game: the first level of Raze is a tutorial level in which you find out how to move, jump, double jump, collect and change weapons, etc. In the end, you must destroy a weak bot. The next five levels are also very easy (at least I found them that way), so I won’t say much about them. If you are a skilled player, with decent reflexes, you can run and shoot any enemy you come across. With a superior weapon you can get a lot of one shot kills in these Raze levels.

I found that level 7 is the first really difficult in Raze. Suggestions: calm down, be patient and aim well. Try to shoot! Running and shooting everything you see no longer works. It’s important to choose your weapons wisely in Raze, because some don’t deal as much damage. Use sniper rifle and rocket launcher for long and medium range shooting and fire shotgun for close range battles. It was during this level (and after failing it 3 times) that I developed a careful strategy. Using the same strategy, level 8 seemed painless (level 8 features the same level design, this time having to fight zombies, zombies that only look like zombies but have the ability to move fast and use weapons like any other bot you know ). The same can be said for level 9.

Level 10 seemed much more difficult (everyone starts with Bio Uzis right away, rather than just guns) and chaotic; Providentially, the other bots on my side did a good job, while I made no difference :). Level 11 plays on the same map as Raze. It was only slightly better, and just as I put my hand on a railgun. It is worth mentioning that there is a bright area at the bottom of the level. It is not a passage, it is an electric arc that kills you, as I discovered by chance: p. Level 12 is the third time at the same level (I noticed that Raze levels 7, 8, and 9 share the same map, as do 10, 11, and 12). On this map, it got more and more difficult and I had to make a difference to win level 12. I actually did it, so let’s move on to 13. How did I do it? I abused a grenade launcher. Grenades stick to surfaces and players (!) And deal a large amount of damage to Raze. I generally don’t like that weapon, but the top of the level design made it a fantastic position to hit grenades at enemies by permanently firing in one direction: D. It might sound unconvincing, but, we won!

Raze levels 13 and 14 have the same level design as level 6, the interior of the spaceship with low gravity. Level 13 is not very difficult but, at level 14, all the members of your squad are infected and you are alone against them. It’s a classic deathmatch: everyone against everyone. And it is difficult. I managed to do it only on the third try.

Level 15 is the final fight in this free online game. It is what is called a gigantic battle. The idea is simple: you have to kill the alien boss. He’s a tough guy (with lots of horsepower) but you get 10 life to do it. You will see how long it will take you to defeat and finish Raze’s human campaign.

We’re glad that a good chunk of the latest online games have a lot of work behind them and are real high-quality games. Raze is without a doubt a very good game that should provide several hours of fun (and sometimes fighting).
