The visuals are completely made in pixelart to give it an 80’s arcade style. If you’re into for a nostalgic throwback to the 80’s the graphics of Mother Russia Bleeds really gives you what you want. It’s no game you would play for a deep storyline, but for the action and the fun. It’s a simple story, but it completely fits the game. You break out of the facility and smashes everybody who you encounter on their face. Together with your newfound powers/addiction and your fist you start your quest for revenge. The reason for the kidnapping is so that they can test the drug Necro on you.The drug causes hallucinations and addictions, but also makes you stronger. The maffia, who works together with the corrupt government, suddenly crashes the party and kidnaps the fighters, including you. After you win this fight it all goes wrong. Of course you belong to the street fighters and thus you start your first fights. Once you’ve picked your character you find yourself in a ghetto filled with homeless people and street fighters. Storywise it doesn’t really matter which one you pick. Before you start the game you have to pick one of the four characters, Natasha, Boris, Ivan, or Sergei. The story of Mother Russia Bleeds is set in an alternative version of the 80’s Soviet Union. With this game they will throw you in an unique alternative Soviet Union in which you can use your fists for a beautiful feast of pixel gore. They found it with Le Cartel Studio who were able to make Mother Russia Bleeds. After the success of Hotline Miami it makes sense that publisher Devolver Digital would look for more developers who could make a great pixelart violent and gory game.
