   “Hole-hole-hole,” answered the armored personnel carrier, but it was clear that
he's worried.

   This is how the game "Operation Wolf" could begin, recently released

about a year ago there was such a machine in the Park of Culture, and joy-

   When the game starts, you are shown the stages of hero preparation:
grenades, a knife (which does not appear in the game), an Uzi - and go!
For a painfully long time, two screens about the authors of the game light up - and on-
the end is the game menu.

   In "Wolf" you have to play the role of a lone hero, one

   There are six levels in "Wolf" that are quite well connected

   Well, what happens on the game screen itself can be described
in one word - carnage! Still, let’s take a closer look at

   6. Airport. The hostages (those that still remain) are still

always looms on the left side of the screen. The enemies are rampaging with might and main,

not a single hostage was saved, congratulations will not be so

   It remains to talk about the prizes. From time to time they pa-

earth. To take the prize, you need to shoot him or knock down a grenade

shoot a flying turkey and get a spare magazine.

   And finally - about an additional opportunity.  During
downloads You are asked to choose: a normal game or immortality.
True, I’m not Mac Cloud and I prefer to give up immortality:
as it was once noted, with eternal life a game like"kill them
everyone" usually turns into "right now I'll show you all."  In my opinion
it would be better to make a training mode: calling anyone
level at will, as in "Scooby Doo". But this is a matter of taste.

   That's it. Happy hunting!
