    For fans of Mega Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, and a host of platforming classics, it’s hard not to recommend Berserk Boy. The plot may not turn heads, but the fluid controls and presentation should. Will this game make you “Go Berserk?” Perhaps. Here’s hoping for an 8-bit demake to follow.
  2. Berserk Boy isn’t Mega Man Zero, but it tries its hardest to capture those vibes, and mostly pulls it off. It’s a bit repetitive, and the story isn’t really worth paying attention to, but its fast, fluid, and fun movement and combat make it worth playing for anyone who’s a fan of Sonic, Mega Man, or Azure Striker Gunvolt.

    This indie game brings back everything we loved about weekend afternoons in the 90s. Agile and challenging gameplay, captivating art, and audio that will make you nod your head lightly without even realizing it. It’s perfect for Mega Man fans and classic platformers, and the portability of the Switch version makes it a perfect travel companion.
