Honestly, just a fun game, highly very strongly recommend grabbing this to just dick around with friends.
I'm not the biggest fighting game fan, but booting this up occasionally to play with a friend has made this at least a worthwhile purchase, that and I do hear it isn't a half bad as a fighting game all up. Coupled with the visuals which are some quite stunning 2d graphics, with the character designs being honestly quite fantastic too. Really if I cared about fighting games more I'd probably rate this way higher.

now i am not a fighting game guy by any means - or at the very least have never thought myself one. a good friend and i decided to give this game a try, and we just played matches together for like 3 hours straight and it was awesome. i sucked ass and lost a bunch but i was still having the time of my life. even if, like me, you are abysmal at fighting games, there is so much to appreciate here it's ridiculous. the spritework and the soundtrack are phenomenal. it felt like a pretty good introduction to fighting games, too. seemingly simple on the surface but actually has a lot going on under the hood. ive even enjoyed playing arcade mode over and over which is something i thought would never be the case. b jenet for life
This is my favorite SNK game so far. Great pixel art, music and fun fighting system. It just misses some features compared to modern fighting games, and the single player arcade has a horrible difficulty curve. Also I wish they made the music louder in the audio mix. I get deafened by the sound effects if I want to jam out.
