Difficult, atmospheric jank. 3/5 stars.

Beldurra feels like an unfinished version of a great campaign. It has consistently good visuals that give it a unique, engrossing atmosphere — the antique streets of this vaguely European city feel equal parts creepy and cozy. The level design is also varied and fairly easy to navigate, while new mechanics like crafting your own throwables add a bit of extra personality.

I would love this mod if it was easier and more polished, but alas. Zombie spawns are overtuned, so most crescendo events are difficulty spikes that aren't fun or fair — especially the finale, which might genuinely be impossible without a sharp melee. Worse still, some crescendos start without any warning. There are also tons of minor bugs and janky moments that drag down the experience, most notably an event where a car that's supposed to explode and reveal a path will sometimes just... not do that.

There's plenty to like here, but I can only recommend this with a few asterisks.
