    Nitro kid does a wonderful job of standing out from other rouge-likes but some of the glaring issues prevent it from being a strong contender against other titles such as The darkest Dungeon and one of the more recent popular titles, Hades. It was a fun little adventure and could definitely hit the spot if players are looking for another game to add to their backlog but will certainly leave players looking for more after their initial run is finished.

    On paper, Nitro Kid seems like a fun tactical roguelike in which you build your own deck of cards. It’s utterly unbalanced, however, and therefore frustrating, boring and bland. Even the 80s atmosphere is lacking.
