Hotline Miami Collection is a compilation of two retro action games that resembles the first installment of the Grand Theft Auto series. In both titles, the game is shown in top-down view, and all the fun is focused on killing enemies in subsequent locations. Dennaton Games is responsible for developing both titles.
Hotline Miami is a title set in in an alternative version of Miami in 1989. The plot revolves around mysterious messages recorded on the answering machine of the main character of the game. Under their influence, the protagonist decides to commit subsequent acts of violence. The title was originally introduced to the market on October 23, 2012.
Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number is a direct continuation of its predecessor. It was launched on the market on March 10, 2015. The action of the title is set after the arrest of the protagonist of the first installment and focuses on the consequences of his actions. In this case, the player does not assume the role of a single person. Instead, they take control of several different, seemingly unrelated people. But with time it turns out that they are closely connected with each other.
The two games forming Hotline Miami Collection offer pixel art visuals, which additionally refer to the style of the 80's. Locations are bathed in neon light, which makes them shine with characteristic, sharp colors.

Nindie Spotlight: 8.5 / 10 by Justin Nation
Shadow dropped as a surprise this year, Hotline Miami was one of those indie darling titles that had shocked me continuing to be a hold out more than 2 years after the system’s launch...
Video Chums: 7.8 / 10 by A.J. Maciejewski
If video games taught me anything, it's that senseless violence is fun. Okay, perhaps that isn't true but it's definitely the case in Hotline Miami.
Saving Content: 4 / 5 by Evan Rowe
It’s a strange thing to be able to return to both Hotline Miami games on the Switch, of all systems. Nintendo’s colorful handheld isn’t exactly the system that comes to mind when you think of grimy game worlds and graphic violence. On the plus side, these are extremely faithful conversions that run perfectly on Switch and bring another classic franchise to its ever-expanding library of indies. This package isn’t for everybody; it’s hard as hell and is over the top with its violence, but there’s no denying the importance of Hotline Miami as a touchstone within gaming culture. If the Switch is a platform for collecting as many games from as many generations as possible, Hotline Miami and its sequel feel like essential additions to its catalog.
