If you liked River City Ransom but also like all the best things about JRPGs, such as unclear maze-like level design, random encounters, grinding for EXP, a runtime twice as long as it should be, and a plot that goes for deadly serious when it really should be going for campy fun instead, then BOY DO I HAVE A GAME FOR YOU

Also recommended if you really want to hit girls. You get to punch and kick so many girls in this game. This is straight-up a girl-fighting simulator. Either the developers grew up just wanting to wail on girls at school and poured that energy into this game, or whoever played this on the YouTube video I watched for some reason just picked a fight with every girl stranger that walked by him. Either way, it’s weird. If I were Anita Sarkeesian I would be weeping and wringing my hands in the middle of my video review for this game that no one in the United States has ever played before, but I’m not, so

A shame that we may never get another Kunio in this style

Good-ish, but the SD Kunio games blew the "serious" ones out of the water.

Game Review - originally written by (wraith)

Some people call this game River City Ransom 2. It's by the same people, and it's the same type of game. So I can see why. The only problem is that what I've played of it is helluva less fun than the original River City Ransom. The premise is the same as every other brawling game out there. You walk around the streets, subways, buildings and what have you and beat up everyone that isn't you. Simple, yet effective.

The graphics in this are obviously better than the original RCR, being for the SNES and all… but they took out the shopping part of the game. Stealing uhh I mean Collecting money and buying stuff was one of the cool things with RCR… It's just not the same without shops. However, the game is still packed with all the corny dialog you can shake a stick at. If that's your thing, this game is sure to amuse you for at least a few hours.

Très difficile... Have to grind and grind, to my memories... If I 'member, I haven't played it long long ago... 🤷😶‍🌫️

I mean... You can't even save Super Famicom games... 🤷

Gotta leave it on all night, like I did as a kid... (my parents turned it off to save electricity... didn't know how to... copy the code...)
