Cadillacs and Dinosaurs is what happens when you mix Final Fight with freaking dinosaurs. You get the great mechanics of Capcom’s original brawling masterpiece, drive a cool Cadillac, and then mix it with a world-ending plot featuring dinosaurs.
The dinos are fun and all that, but you’ve come for the brawling—and in my opinion you get a great one. The game feels as smooth as butter, especially with Jack, Hannah and Mustapha; as they just glide through the levels with a variety of running kicks, slides and jumps—it’s really a joy to play. Items like guns, bazookas, explosives etc., and your usual garden-variety knives are fun to play around with and enhance the gameplay experience.
It’s the hallmark of a great brawler when you barely feel like using the special attack and this game definitely has that feeling in spades.
