    GUTS is gory, messy, bloody, violent, and... did I say gory yet? Well, it's gory enough to say it twice. Beyond that, GUTS is an approachable yet mildly complex fighting game that will appeal to people just trying out a fighting game for the first time, or experienced fighters looking for a change of pace.

    GUTS is one of the most fun games I played in a long time.

It is not often that you see a game that dares to innovate with different mechanics in an established genre. GUTS takes the fighting games main mechanics and turn it upside down to deliver a new experience - and a hilarious one.

    As you don't have health bars, you must chop off limbs of your rivals to win. That may sound gross at first, but the game treats it in a very light-hearted way, with colorful scenarios and characters and funny quotes and animations that take off the weight of what would be otherwise a maybe controversial mechanic.

    The result is that GUTS is a blast to play, both alone or with friends. With a story mode that features two endings per characters, local versus with several game modes, and online gameplay that works well, it is an awesome value for your money.

    In the end, GUTS brings very deep, yet accessible, gameplay mechanics that allows it to be both a party game just for fun, but also a competitive game that can easily become a contender in the e-sport competitive scene. You can button mash your way into victories, but when one of the players actually master the character and the U-Point system, skill comes in and it is what defines who wins.

    Everyone should give GUTS a try. It is a bold game that brings new ideas to the fighting genre and brings back the fun of smashing your friends without the need to practice for days to have fun.
