The Hell in Vietnam is a Vietnam war-oriented first-person shooter video game developed and published by Poland studio City Interactive for Microsoft Windows on June 1, 2007.

Gameplay

The Hell in Vietnam is a first-person shooter that tasks the player with completing various objectives to progress further in the game.[1] The player controls 1st Lieutenant Thomas "Deadeye" Coburn, an American soldier in the Vietnam War.[1] The plot follows Coburn's work in his unit, which is described in diary entries between missions.[1] These diary notes give context to the 8 individual missions in the game.[1] The missions generally follow a similar setup, with the player being required to kill Vietcong soldiers and then destroy an objective like an anti-aircraft gun or eliminating a Vietnamese sniper.[1] Komputer Świat GRY's Adam Kaczmarek noted that the game took them 92 minutes to complete.[1]

Reception

Komputer Świat GRY's Adam Kaczmarek said that The Hell in Vietnam became a parody of itself, and that its low-budget gameplay shows "imperfections at every step."[1] GameZone Germany's Michael Sosinka said that the game's low 20 asking price was a "waste of money" and recommended the older Vietcong 2 instead.[2]
