★★★★☆

Like all arcade beat-em-ups, River City Girls is best experiences with a co-op buddy. I wish this game had online co-op, that's my only criticism.

The opening is so damn catchy (I almost never skip it), the art style and animations are cool, the voice acting is awesome (I was totally surprised when I recognized Godai's voice actor was JackSepticEye ). The soundtracks are all just bangers. And the story itself is pretty funny and entertaining.

While playing solo, I found the combat to be tedious despite regularly unlocking new moves. Due to the missions structure in this game, you'll be running around the same areas and beating up the same enemies over and over again.

The bosses are amazing. I love the challenge and overcoming their attack patterns. The level designs are nice too.

I still haven't beat the game, I'm thinking of getting back to it only when I find a co-op partner, but I still highly recommend checking out this game, it's totally fun!

Fun fact. One of Kyoko's unlockable moves makes her do the dab. It's so hilariously cool.
