It is not like LCB's previous games. The story is still the core of the experience, but the game is different. Mothmen 1966 was a linear experience, I don't remember dying in the game, different decisions could make you miss some achievements, that was all. There were some moments of gameplay mixed with clicking through the story. In Varney Lake there were many (too many perhaps) mini games, but were optional and didn't affect the story (some you had to play at least once), you needed to play them and win to earn some achievements. For Banshen Knights, we have few mini games, some gameplay mixed up with the story, much like Mothmen. Some gamplay suffers because the user interface is too basic, so even when the rules are clear it is hard to play. Others are hard to understand in the short time you have before dying, that leads to retries, and that kills the thrill, there is no risk: if you die, you immediately retry (the same logic exists in Elden Ring, but just dying and retry...

About the Game
In a world of religious fanaticism, F5 tornadoes and Ford Sierras you are Boulder, an undercover agent. Your assignment sees you infiltrate the Bahnsen Knights, a deadly, supercharged cult with an enigmatic leader. In this murky and dangerous world you must keep your wits about you and stay alive to unravel the mystery behind an old friend’s disappearance.
Who are the Bahnsen Knights?
The Bahnsen Knights are the fastest cult in the land. Powered by religious fanaticism and supercharged Sierras they follow their charismatic leader Toni as they unleash hell upon earth. What are their aims? Why are they performing ‘route exorcisms’ and babbling about 'miracles on the road'? And adding to the enigma: Why are they holding paranormal investigator Lou Hill captive in a trunk?
An enigmatic leader
The Bahnsen Knights’ highest authority, Toni, is an ex-car salesman preaching that Hell is not below but above us all. He was being investigated by agent Cupra, one of your oldest friends in the Agency. But now Cupra’s gone. Does Toni have something to do with his disappearance?
An undercover agent
You thought you had seen everything in all your years working for the Agency, but this assignment is something else, something personal, something darker… and it scares you. Will you be able to keep it together for long enough to uncover what happened to Cupra and take down Toni and the Bahnsen Knights once and for all? Danger lies around every corner and every conversation. You just need to stay alive!
