    This is the best Metroidvania game I had play. It has the perfect mix of freely exploring the world and collecting items to unlock the map. The bullet hell boss fight are really fun. I can't recommend this game enough.

    This is a "bullet hell" game with a Metroidvania design. 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.

    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    … Expand

    Rabi-Ribi is an original title that mixes metroidvania and bullet-hell with an arcade art section that will give a lot of fun to anyone who dares to enjoy it. In spite of its strange story with quite a lot of fanservice and its little optimization, it is undoubtedly a game that is worthwhile for anyone looking for something different.

    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.

    Rabi-Ribi on Nintendo Switch is an excellent way to experience this excellent game, even with the issues relating to lack of rumble and menu lag.
