Shellshock Commando, made by Shanghai Lezuan, is free and has no in-app purchases. Placing it among the current bunch of mobile game companies, this is practically an act of a living saint. At first, I didn't believe it either, thinking it was some free-to-play trap, but after playing for two days, I didn't find a single recharge entry. Truly rare. The gameplay is basically a proper survivor-like style: move around while standing, auto-fire, waves of monsters flooding the screen, while you sneakily survive and pick up experience to level up. The formula is old, but the feel is pretty good, shooting feedback is solid, and the monsters aren't stupid—they know how to go around and flank you. The skill tree upgrade combinations are deep enough, and trying a few sets each had its own fun. The thrill of mowing down enemies when picking up a legendary weapon even got this veteran single-player gamer a little hooked. Back to the main point, since this is posted in the music section, I have to mention the sound effects. Bullet hits, explosions, and experience pickup cues are all crisp and clean, making headphone experience excellent. The soundtrack is that tense synth atmosphere, fitting the post-apocalyptic city survival theme, without shoving in cheesy rock or overly sentimental piano to fool you. My only complaint is that the game UI is not friendly for small phone screens, making it tiring to read skill descriptions while lying down. Also, the initial level pacing is a bit slow, almost discouraging me. But once you get past the first ten minutes and get used to the monster wave rhythm, you'll find the game is pretty hardcore at its core. In my opinion, this is a mobile game that doesn't force you to check in daily, nor do you need to sell accounts to recover. It truly retains players purely through gameplay. If you're looking for a touchscreen shooter you can play offline without being bombarded with limited-time offers every hour, then trying Shellshock Commando is surely a good bet. In my experience, it has already stood its ground, and I hope greedy capitalists don't ruin it with pay-to-win systems later. In short, after a busy day, lying in bed and using the sound of its bullets as white noise to relax is genuinely the ultimate form of stress relief. Recommendation: Cartridge Commando Squad: Promoting a game in the music sharing section—I even feel like it's a bit off-topic myself. But I can't help it, I really need to vent about this game, so let's put the playlist aside for now.
