Bloodstroke A John Woo Game Shoots Its Way Onto Google Play; Hack, Slash And Gun Down Your Enemies In Legendary Director's Latest

There Will Be Doves: Bloodstroke A John Woo Game Releases For Google Play Today

Legendary Hong Kong action director John Woo, whose resume includes Hard Boiled, A Better Tomorrow and yes, Face/Off, returns to video games with the Google Play version of his crimson and scarlet new noir, Bloodstroke: A John Woo Game.

The game puts you in the shoes of Mai Lee, codename Lotus, an elite private security operative who finds herself on the wrong end of a double cross. Now she's hell bent on finding out who betrayed her and in classic John Woo fashion, she is going to leave a trail of bodies before the end.

Android users, run and gun and hack n slash your way through 30 levels of stylized, Sin City-esque imagery as you try to uncover the mystery. The game looked gorgeous on the iOS version released a while back and it looks damn fine on Android, too. The brushstroke style, like that of Japanese calligraphy, is a perfect juxtaposition against the brutal violence that takes place. John Woo is nothing but a master artist, and his medium is blood.

Bloodstroke is John Woo's first foray into the mobile market, but it is not his first video game. In 2007, he re-teamed with action icon Chow Yun Fat for Stranglehold, the follow-up to their ridiculously amazing 1992 film Hard Boiled. The game was good, not great. Seeing Woo return with an all new story, one with a female protagonist no less, more than makes up for the lack of a major western release from him in a long while.

You can paint the town red right now for $.99 at the Google Play marketplace.
