New to Serious Sam?
Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter is Croteam's high-definition remake of the classic arcade shooter. Sam "Serious" Stone is sent back through time to ancient Egypt to fight the forces of Notorious Mental, across 15 levels packed with charging Sirian Werebulls, screaming Beheaded Kamikazes and the giant Ugh-Zan III. Huge enemy waves, fast movement and a big arsenal, from revolvers to the cannon, are the whole point, and the campaign is built for co-op.
Play the whole campaign together, with enemy numbers that grow with your group.
Pick how tough the enemies are, and hunt for secrets on every level.

Why rent a server?
Hosting from the game ties everyone's connection to one player's PC and home internet, and the session ends when they leave. A dedicated server keeps your co-op campaign or deathmatch online on its own. On our servers you set the server name, game mode, difficulty, max players and starting level in the panel, change the game rules in the config editor, send commands from the panel console, and get full file access over SFTP and SSH.
Your server stays up when you log off, so your group can drop in any time.
Friendly fire, infinite ammo, respawns and pickups, set the way your group likes.
Straight answers before you order. Still stuck? Real people are here around the clock.
Run the co-op campaign or deathmatch for up to 16 players on a server that stays up when you log off.
