The same score can be used as currency to buy weapons, utilities and ammo. In addition, weapons and ammo can also be found during the gameplay. The range of weapons gives you sufficient choices, so that you can choose the weapon that suits you the best. It offers you standard pistols, Uzis and rifles for long range and shotguns for short range. Apart from that it features a flamethrower, C4 and Grenades. The utilities are very generic, restricted to only the typical medikit and a laser sight.
=== Levels ===
The games levels are defined as episodes, and one episode can have multiple levels. The weapon and utility shop is only accessible in between levels. The game also features a multiplayer mode which is similar to the single player mode in terms of game play, but you come across other players you have to kill in addition to the computer controlled enemies.
As far as the graphics are concerned, they are pretty retro as you would expect, matching the general theme of the game. The sound effects are extremely neat. The minimal version only has one music theme. I would advise you to try the [[:File:Tk406full.zip|complete version]] to get the full ambience. Do not worry, both versions are free.
=== Conclusion ===
All in all, Tapan Kaikki is a series you should give a spin. Tapan Kaikki 4: Bloodshed is a free and small download, so it will not hurt to try. You never know, this might be your next best game. It is not only a real treat for retro gamers but also has an appeal for casual PC gamers.
