My older brother was here for a week and he only plays fighting games. Usually MK/SF, but I had bought this game a long time ago and decided to give it a try while he was here. He liked. I'm not much into fighting games, but it's fun playing versus. I finished the Story, but it's not that great. I'm really tired of this "Superman has gone bad" trope. Every single DC movie/series has done it by now.

One of the best Strategy games I've played in a long time. I usually stick to 1-2 games in that genre, instead of trying to find new games. The reason is that strategy is such a niche genre that I find it really hard to trust new devs. Most indies in this genre are terrible and there are just a handful of AA studios actually making games in this genre. I won BATTLETECH on SG and got challenge to play it (Thank you!) and it was a very pleasant surprise.
Honestly, I should have known better, considering I liked their previous games (the shadowrun series), even though they were more rpgs than strategy. The story, the music, the gameplay everything is really fun in this game. Looting old mech and using their parts to create a new, heavier mech is incredibly addicting.
If I have to nitpick, I'd say that the worst part of this game is the difficulty curve. The game starts really hard as you only own terrible mechs. It gets really easy at the middle, but then you reach a point you can't progress without grinding for new mechs or money to buy parts and weapons.
I highly recommend this game to any strategy fan!

It looks like a tablet/mobile game and it plays like one. It's repetitive, the story has all possible cliches, it has a terrible User Interface, but the core gameplay loop teaching your stundents until they can evolve to one of the 3 professions, which in place can also evolve into 2 more professions each is quite fun and addictive. Graduating characters that have been with you all the way from lvl1 until lvl 30 is great.

It's a short and fun game about a weird family. Interesting puzzles that are not unfair. One can't really ask more from a game in this genre.

I'm not a pinball fan, but I absolutely loved this game. I never expected to play a pinball metroidvania, but the devs manage to create something that is not only innovative, but also incredibly fun to play. It's up there with Hollow Knight.
If you like metroidvanias, do yourself a favor an buy this game.

It's a 1:1 remake of the original game. You can switch to the original graphics and sound on the fly. I never played the original, so I just played using the modern visuals.
The game is hard, as all older games used to be. I'd have spent at least a hundred quarters to finish it on the Arcade back in the day because I died so much… I bet a speedrunner can finish it in less than an hour. It's quite short. The worst part about it how slippery the characters are. It feels like playing with Luigi in the old Mario games. I hate this. >.<

I love metroidvanias, so I couldn't pass this freebie from the Epic Games Store. It's the closest to the original Metroid feeling a game has ever reached imo. Everything in this game screams Metroid. It's quite good. I just wish the bosses were a bit better. Most of them are easy or predictable. The last boss was a joke thanks to the OP red coat which gives you a teleport that damages enemies you pass through, while making you invulnerable. Just spam it and you'll defeat anything. :/

I was having a good time with this game, until I realized that I was just doing the same thing over and over. You reach a town -> cutscene -> start the quest for one of the eight protagonists -> cutscene -> go to a nearby dungeon -> defeat boss -> cutscene. Repeat this for all 8 characters, 4 times each. The same thing 32 times… Had the characters been written well, this might not have been a problem… However, while some of them have interesing stories and great voice actores, others are incredibly boring. You have so many cliches: The disgraced knight, the naive cleric, the thief with a heart of gold… At least the soundtrack is probably one of the best of all time.
