    Suda51 strikes again. It's not perfect, but if you love Suda51 you will get what you are expecting.

    So, while Romeo Is a Dead Man offers a unique and refreshing experience, in some ways, predominantly its Sub-Space world, it's oddly repetitive. But although I would've been thrilled to find major gameplay switch-ups like the asylum adventure in its Sub-Space realm, the joy found in the good parts far outweighs the occasional dullness. When this game gets weird, it really gets weird — by the end, you'll consider it perfectly normal to chat with your own bomber jacket while fondling creepy puppets in an abandoned asylum.

    Whether that’s a dealbreaker, I’ll leave between you and your rig. If you can run it, though, Romeo is a Dead Man provides smiles, surprises, and memorable swordfights, especially once it warms up. It probably won’t go down as an all-timer in Grasshopper Manufacture’s ouvre, and in 20 years’ time, I doubt YouTube will be recommending me Romeo videos as often as it currently does Killer7’s Russian Roulette scene. But that’s fine: quality slashing and organic zombie gardening can still count for plenty.
