POSTAL Redux

POSTAL Redux is a high-definition remake of the original POSTAL. You control the POSTAL Dude as he moves through a town he perceives as consumed by madness; text between levels offers glimpses of his mindset. The campaign takes you through successive isometric stages, where you move, aim, and fight hostile forces using weapons such as shotguns, Molotovs, rockets, and mines. The remake updates the visuals and controls, and adds a Revolver. The classic campaign has 17 levels, while the combined Excess Postage campaign brings the total to 23, including content from the original add-ons. Other modes include Rampage, which scores kill streaks, online co-op for up to four players, and deathmatches for up to eight.

As the POSTAL Dude, fight through a violence-stricken town in an isometric twin-stick shooter with a wide arsenal.
