This continues throughout the game, often out of chronological order, with things getting weirder and the narrator less reliable. He is instructed to kill a group of criminals, for various reasons, by a group wearing animal masks. Taking place in 1989 Miami, the game tells the story of an unnamed man, later known as “Jacket”, who is given a mask and a task by a random voice on the phone. One of the most surprising and brilliant elements of the original Hotline Miami, was the story. Some of these elements are present in Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, but ultimately the game is too long, too difficult, and too wrapped up in itself to reach the same heights as its predecessor. The original Hotline Miami came out of nowhere and blew gamers away with its colourful, top-down perspective that harkened back to Grand Theft Auto of yore, fast, ultra-violent action, thumping, hypnotic soundtrack, and surprisingly memorable story.
