[PC] Free - Postal (Was $2.95) - Steam

1710

Now, this has been free for a while on GOG (and on Steam) but seems to not have been posted when it went from paid to free on 20 December 2019 on Steam so here is the post.
Game is old but rated "very positive" on Steam. Not sure if you still can get trading cards but probably not if you only got it after it has gone free (I did get it before so I got cards and cannot check myself now).

From the website:

Take control of The Postal Dude in his infamous first outing as he battles to survive in a world gone mad! POSTAL is a classic isometric shooter filled to the brim with fast-paced explosive action. Crazed gunmen out for your blood await you around every corner, and your only choice is to get them before they get you. Fight back with a destructive arsenal as make your way through a violence-stricken town.

It's time to go POSTAL!

  • New control options - use your mouse or dual analog sticks. None of that tank control insanity!
  • Get your friends together for LAN Multiplayer - co-op or deathmatch for up to 16 players.
  • Blast your way through 22 levels: Includes the original 16 level campaign, 4 from the Special Delivery expansion and 2 previously Japanese-exclusive levels.
  • Test yourself with one of 22 bonus Challenge stages, across 4 categories. Or play through all of them in The Gauntlet.
  • 9 devastating weapons: Defend yourself with varied tools of mayhem. Take aim with the Scatter Gun! Clear out rooms with Grenades, Mines, and the almighty Napalm Launcher! Whip out Heatseeker Rockets for those big groups!
  • Wide range of foes: Defend yourself from Molotov-tossing Grenadiers, gun-toting Infantryman, rocket-firing Heavy-Weapons Experts (don't forget to duck!), and angry Ostriches!
  • Non-stop, guns-blazing, adrenaline-fueled action!
  • Fully-voiced Japanese audio available!

Enjoy!

    Pity its not Postal 2.

    The only good game that encourages running with and throwing scissors.

    I played this in the 90's. I believe it got banned for a while?

    • It's still banned (refused classification). The high-def remake Postal REDUX was rated MA 15+ last year but this original version is still RC.

      Not if you're still in the gimp suit.

    • Only if you donate to my conveniently indeterminate cause,

    where the heck is hatred?

    • 'Hatred' is a much superior game.

  • Imagine if the people who banned Postal saw Hitman? Can bomb and mow down crowds of defenceless people.

      Hitman is less gory though. Postal you can actually dissect their bodies and the missions are much more dark humour. In Hitman, you can also play without killing anyone but the target to get the most points, not that anyone actually does that though.

      • Ah yes of course the gore. Hitman could really benefit from that.

        A fun challenge for me is trying to kill everyone as stealthy as possible except the targets. Once you've unlocked everything it spices it up.

    • Imagine if they saw Manhunt by Rockstar Games. Actually they did, it's still banned lol. If any game should be banned it's probably that one haha

  • Too bad the ending got censored in the Redux version, but I understand given the current political climate.

    Not a fan of isometric shooters but since I loved Postal 2 a lot, might as well give it a try.

    I remember playing this game in highschool. Oh what wonderful days those were.
