    After my 12 plus hours of playtime with Okinawa Rush, I can confidently say that this is the best beat-em-up I’ve played in the past decade. With nine endings, a co-op campaign, a plethora of things to unlock, and a light touch of Dark Souls RPG elements, Okinawa Rush is one game that I can see both fans and non-fans of the genre sinking a good chunk of time into, if not for conventional reasons, then for the sheer variety and ambition on display here.

    Infused with the beat'em ups and platform games of the 1990s, Okinawa Rush is a resounding tribute to series like Shinobi, Kung Fu Master and Ninja Gaiden. Very neat and with a great visual and sound atmosphere, the Miller brothers' game unleashes a little uppercut. Displaying a sublime 2D and powerful animations, the title of Sokaidan also benefits from an ingenious progression system and very interesting ideas (dojo, training, katas ...). Playable in co-op, this is a little nugget that will bring back the sensations of yesteryear to many nostalgic fans.

    We are very used to seeing old arcade games used as a basis for lazy indie rehashes but Okinawa Rush is one of the few that elevates the source material to new levels.

    It pains me to say it, but I came away from Okinawa Rush with the sense that it’s a huge missed opportunity. The frustration of dealing with the timer quickly builds up and overshadows everything that the developers get right.

    It is looking very good like retro arcade action fighting game , but the timer …..oh this wonderful timer , is ruining the whole game ! I hateIt is looking very good like retro arcade action fighting game , but the timer …..oh this wonderful timer , is ruining the whole game ! I hate timers! But when you play as a white belt there is no timer but the game is like set on hard mode ?! The controls on ps4 are horrible . The game has many moves to master but I was smashing my buttons like crazy and it helped anyways. It could have been more like street fighter kinda fighting but this , doesn’t feel really satisfying . I payed 35 $… Expand
