    Rabi-Ribi is fun in a lot of ways, it just focuses on being too “cute” and it disconnects the player from any actual storyline. Unless you’re a fan of anime and bunny rabbits I’d probably wait for this one to go on sale.

If you like difficult bullet hell games where you're dodging a thunderstorm of bullets non-stop for 20 minutes at a time during a boss battle, Rabi-Ribi will be amazing. If you like Metroidvania games, you might want to pass. The main mode of this game actually discourages MV-style exporation. It's more focused on dodging while chipping away at enemies.

    Pros:
    - Cute MV-style world
    - The BG music for each area is awesome
    - Awesome bullet-hell boss battles
    - Excellent freedom of choice (all items are optional) and backtracking
    - Offers many difficulty levels; normal mode is quite forgiving

    Cons:
    - The characters are too psychotic to be cute
    - The story is absolute nonsense and extremely-weak
    - Collecting items is a double-edged sword that levels up enemies
    - Feels more like a boss-rush than an MV
    - Post-game content is insanely difficult    … Full Review »
