You will have to act in familiar locations, for example, there is Shelby's house, Charlie Strong's warehouses, the Garrison pub. The player goes through the game from above, completing different types of missions, for example, you need to take revenge on a gang of competitors by destroying their warehouse, or free your man from prison, and also secretly penetrate enemy territory to steal evidence. To effectively complete tasks, you need to use the skills of each of the heroes. The tasks have time limits, and there are also intermediate missions. In the process, the gamer switches between wards to establish the sequence of their actions. To complete one task, for example, by selecting a ward, the user goes through until he encounters an obstacle, and then the user switches to the second hero, who is able to cope with the task, simultaneously rewinding time, and activating the process again. Then the two characters gradually complement each other's actions, and in case of failure, you can rewind time again to achieve perfect execution. Here it is important to quickly and as imperceptibly as possible carry out strategic actions, select fighters in accordance with their skills and plan wisely in order to fully implement the optimal process.
