The Hell in Vietnam is a Vietnam War-oriented first-person shooter video game developed and published by Polish studio City Interactive for Microsoft Windows on June 1, 2007.
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]
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]
Kaczmarek is the 18th most common surname in Poland and the second most popular in Greater Poland (24,185) and Lubusz Land (3,121). The name is a diminutive from the Old Polish version of the word karczmarz, meaning "innkeeper".
