    This is an oldschool with run'n'gun action game just like we played Contra! 8-bit stylized pixelate graphics combined with good chiptuneThis is an oldschool with run'n'gun action game just like we played Contra! 8-bit stylized pixelate graphics combined with good chiptune soundtrack for the bio-sci-fi setting. You can also play as local coop mode and has three modes but you have to unlock Hardcore mode in game. It's really worth to buy! Expand

    If you are looking for a Contra-clone, this is probably as good as it gets. Controls are great. Very difficult, even on the "easy" setting,If you are looking for a Contra-clone, this is probably as good as it gets. Controls are great. Very difficult, even on the "easy" setting, but mostly fair, at least, when you have the spread gun.

    That would be my first complaint – the weapons are not balanced well. In Contra III, you can beat the game with any weapon. In Super Cyborg, once you lose the spread gun, it gets so much more annoying and difficult... The artwork and the music is cool in a way, but also a bit annoying.

    That being said, there are not many Contra-like games out there, and this one was definitely crafted with love. If you liked Contra, do yourself a favor and get it.
