    It may not be stamped with the Contra emblem, but Blazing Chrome rocks that blood-soaked bandana with greater confidence than any run-and-gun in recent memory. [Issue #41 – September 2019, p. 22]

    Blazing Chrome’s gameplay borrows a lot from many arcade classics, no question. But a shorter experience that’d be worth a few quarters in a coin-op might not be worth $16.99, especially with the highly repetitive nature (and communication error popups). For better or worse, this title has the overall feel of a relic. As an older gamer who grew up with arcades, it should hold high appeal to me. Yet I can’t help but find myself thinking more about the games it’s trying to emulate, at least when playing solo.

    At last we have the missing link between Contra and Metal Slug. JoyMasher has managed to capture the essence of the genre in an exceptional way.
