    Great game. Love the voice acting! Full disclosure, I am a die hard fan of the genre. WotPF doesn't reinvent the wheel, but if certainly gives an interesting take. You can bang through the story mode in about 4-5 hours, with an interesting range of enemies and bosses, each with a distinct style. Great artwork, voice acting, and an energetic soundtrack that DRIPS with nostalgia makes thisGreat game. Love the voice acting! Full disclosure, I am a die hard fan of the genre.

    Fundamentally, the palette of action choices felt too limited, and the stately procession of single challengers makes each melee seem slow and boring. The premise feels compromised by the use of defense solely as a way to build up to violent attacks, rather than a way of dealing with bosses on its own. There’s an interesting idea or two in here, but they’re not developed into a complete, coherent experience.

    Knowing parody of classic side scrolling brawlers. The joke wears a little thin after a while unfortunately. Something of a stiff challenge that might deter all but the most masochistic gamers.
