Rawal Rumble is a beat ’em up game where you need to take on the streets in retro sidescrolling style!
If you’re a fan of legends like Double Dragon and Final Fight back in the 90s cabinets, you’ll like Rawal Rumble.
You take on the city with either single player or with a friend in local co-op mode, just like the classics. You have an assortment of combat moves (arcade style), tons of weapons to wreck some carnage, and lots of baddies to beat up! It’s a hit and smash and bash classic throwback!
The game has a deep sense of humor all over the place. You need to take down the cyber-police who kidnapped your girlfriend and stop the chaos. You play as a Catalan soldier who’s been retired and now sells food on the side of the street. But that doesn’t mean you lost your badassery.
Rawal is an urban city where the government has tried to take over the people by using some crazy experiments. The cyber-police reigns Rawal and scours the streets with heavy traffic to watch the citizens. It’s up to you to stop them.
The game plays just like the favorites you grew up with. You move to the right and just take out all the swarms of enemies that show up. Use attacks, weapons, and special equips to take them down. It’s a lot more fun if you have a friend to join you locally (no online play), but even with single player it’s still a blast to play.
There’s even a bunch of combos you can do by pressing a succession of keys. That’s pretty awesome. You can find the whole list on the game page linked below and check it out. These moves are flashy and look awesome when you pull them off. And they’re powerful too.
It’s still in early access, so it only has a single full level and also a survival mode where you try to get the best score possible. You play in a huge subway and you need to take down the baddies using your martial arts and weapons you find along the way. Then you face the boss of the subway which is trigger-happy with throwing bombs at your face.
Rawal Rumble isn’t a difficult game and you’ll probably beat it on your second attempt. But it’s still very fun to play and recognize the humor in it. There are a lot of weapons and baddies to take down, and a lot of jokes scattered throughout the game. There are even some tribute items to the classics.
If you like these 90s beat ’em ups with nonstop action, give Rawal Rumble a dance. You’ll have a good time with retro artwork, sound, and classic button-mashing action. Try it out.
