Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari

River CD Ransom


Genre: action - beat em up

Publisher: Naxat Soft

Year: 1993

System: PCE CD


Gameplay Score: 3

Gameplay Notes:

Simple and fun combat which admittedly grows old aftera few minutes. But it's responsive, fair, and features a ton of fun weapons.


Level Design Score: 4

Level Design Notes:

Basically an open world with shops and dead ends and all kinds of surprises to find.


Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

The lack of a translation patch hurts this title. There isn't a lick of English anywhere, making it hard to shop or follow along with the story.


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

As much as I like the Technos boys, they look archaic and puny compared to the Final Fights of the world.


Audio Score: 4

Audio Notes:

Music is a highlight. Fun classical songs are paired with original music that's upbeat and fun.


Overall Score: 67

Review ID: 11029
