    Double Kick Heroes a very fun add to the Game Pass library and it’s a blast to play with friends passing the controller back and forth while sipping on a few adult beverages. The soundtrack slaps and the story and dialog don’t get in the way while you’re trying to just chill and have a good time. Double Kick Heroes knows what it is, and it does it pretty well.

    Double Kick Heroes is, by far, one of the most unique rhythm games I've played. While some of the early songs are dull and the difficulty modes need adjusting, I can still confidently recommend this to hardcore rhythm game fans.

Double Kick Heroes is about rocking out through a zombie apocalypse, and being pursued by said undead across the broken highways of America's decomposing corpse. Not even metaphorically, either. Thankfully, other elements of Double Kick Heroes are more than just up to scratch. The core Adventure mode is a lot of fun, with enjoyable characters, well-written dialogue and fantastic sprite-work that recalls the likes of Day of the Tentacle in places. Double Kick Heroes is a decent rhythm game with plenty of challenge and is considerably tricky to master. It has a fun zombie story line with a nod to Romero’s classics. The metal tracks are decent to listen to if you are a fan of the genre, and it is fun to play along to at the correct difficulty level. It probably would have been easier to play with a makeshift instrument device, but the experience isn’t lessened by playing with a controller.… Full Review »
