Biolab Wars is a tiny budget retro-styled game that pays homage to the classic run-and-gun games of the 80s.
Pros:
- So much fun in a tiny package: In 1 or 2 hours of gameplay, Biolab Wars packs a lot of classic arcade-y fun and a great chiptune soundtrack. The difficulty is just right, a bit on the easy side–which is appropriate for this kind of game.

- So much fun in a tiny package: In 1 or 2 hours of gameplay, Biolab Wars packs a lot of classic arcade-y fun and a great chiptune soundtrack. The difficulty is just right, a bit on the easy side–which is appropriate for this kind of game.
- Silly in all the right ways: Remember those trashy games and movies from the 80s? This game is self-consciously like that. The graphics are so bad, they're good. The "story", if you can call it that, is as incoherent as the worst classic arcade games. Good stuff!
- Dirt cheap: This game is less than 2 euros on the Switch, and often on sale for 1. It's a steal, considering that many retro arcade games are more expensive, shorter, and not as fun to play.
Cons:
- Play and forget: As fun as it is, Biolab Wars has very limited replayability. It doesn't support co-op play like many games of its type, and the four available characters don't seem to play any different from each other.
- One bug: That's all I got–a single blocking bug that forced me to restart the game and replay the sixth level all over again. Not a big deal, but I thought I'd mention it.
- Limited fire options: There are just a few weapons, and you can only shoot in two directions. But seriously, you can tell that I'm running out of negative points here.… Expand
