River City Ransom: Underground Review

Very Good

River City Ransom: Underground is the Spiritual Successor of a very nice NES Game which was one the first Beat'em ups. This game allows you to beat the crap out of pants-less highschool wrestler jocks. Serves as a perfect answer to any of us who need to enact a good highschool revenge fantasy. So far so good, it truly feels like a reboot from it's previous NES game, enjoyable to play with a controller and the sounds make it really feel like you've traveled back to the 80's. It's a brilliant feeling. It has been 28 years since the first River City Ransom title on the NES and I have to wonder why it took so long to see a sequel like this come out on any platform. Grab it and see you around to smash some faces!
