Close your eyes for a moment and pretend that you are now 3 feet tall, grey, and from another planet. No, you are not a miniature off colored Superman, but Crypto (short for Cryptosporidium 137) a member of the Furon race who have survived by cloning themselves. This race of aliens are hell-bent on destroying the human race and that’s where you come in.
You land on earth ready to find one of your own and take care of the people who caught him. You can blow-up, blast, and level everything in your way. You can manipulate humans, take their brains, pick up/throw cows, and use your anal probe on unsuspecting farmers, civilians, cops, military personnel, and yes…even the men in black (known as KGB in here).
The battle mode on here is quit simplistic. Kill them or be killed. There’s not a lot more to it then that. This game can get boring after a time, but it’s still fun to reverse the roles and take out aggression on the human race using your Zap-o-matic, Disintegrator ray, Ion Detonator, and anal probe.
Destroy All Humans is nicely put together too with graphics and sounds. Although the aliens look like the typical aliens you would see in a b-rated SciFi flick, it helps with the storyline and the humor the game is trying to portray. The details of the humans are lacking in close-ups, but everything at a distance is solid. One problem we come across is the problem of things popping up out of nowhere when you’re flying or when you’re trying to shoot long distance, but this can be overlooked and easily dismissed.
This game will make you laugh with the one liners, a few of the cut scenes, and the things that you are able to do with your mind control and weapons. One of the best parts of the game is flying the saucer and blowing up stuff (actually looks like they are being blown up) and the controls are quick to learn. This game is definitely worth checking out.
My Final Score is a 8.5
