Action Arcade Wrestling

This game has a place in the set of currently available wrestling video games out there, in part because it has a different combination of pros and cons. Pros: 1. The creation suite is good, although you must post your wrestler online if you wish to use it. 2. The action is acceptable, and it comes nearer to an American style of fantasy wrestling than to a Japanese style. 3. You can play multiplayer, against the computer, or cpu versus cpu. The cpu is not perfect, but it is watchable and does not fall into the same routines that other games do. For instance, in WWE2k, you can tell what a cpu wrestler will do distinctly before it does it, and it looks the same every time. In Fire Pro, the cpu is more variable but most of the moves do not look awesome or powerful. This game falls somewhere between those two points: the moves look acceptable and are not as telegraphed. 4. It is not as resource-draining as WWE2k. 5. There are download limits, but at 60 items per day, which is not as draconian as WWE2k's system. 6. Most likely the download servers will not go down after 1.5 years. Cons: 1. The game does certainly lack many features that the top wrestling games have. For instance, the wrestlers do not have any visible physical stats. 2. The wrestlers do have customizable move-sets, but not as thorough a selection as those in the top wrestling games. 3. While the possible looks for the wrestlers are highly variable, the graphics are not high-end and considerable effort is required to make them look good. 4. It does not have Fire Pro's strong scheduling system. Neutral: The game is intentionally designed to be arcade-like, with occasional grabbable power-ups and variable goals that occur occasionally. These seem to be fun for those who are into them. People who wish to be fully immersed in the physical aspect of wrestling may find them distracting, but that is all a matter of taste. update: I thought I had found some bugs, but they were on my end

The game is nice and fun to play, but it's sadly barebones. I really appreciate the creation feature. I wish the game had more content. A single-player story or some sort of worthwhile progression system. Also, it would be nice to have entrances. The sound effects are kinda annoying. This game deserves to get a massive overhaul. It needs to be fleshed out. I will have to get a refund for now, but I will definitely buy again if it gets more content. Devs, please don't give up on this one just yet.

Action Arcade Wrestling is a fantastic wrestle game where players can also create/share custom fighters wich'll result in fights beyond your imagination. Gameplay has a great oldschool feeling so if you used to play wrestling games back in the day on your consoles then i have only little doubts that you won't like this game!

The game play is almost TOO simple and repetitive. The game offers little-to-nothing in terms of strategy or tactics in the ring and quickly devolves into mindless button-mashing. The Wrestler Creator is wonky. At best. To get any real details onto a character you create, you have to use resources and/or programs from outside the game (e.g. photoshop) to get them into the game. What's worse is, after fumbling around with that, you have to upload the characters you manage to make online and then download them all over just to be able to use them. That's just lazy programming! All in all, this game has been a complete and utter disappointment.

While I'm sure many would say there are better wrestling games out there, this one has that which most do not. Charm. The game itself is solid as an arcade wrestler but the true appeal is the ability to create your own wrestler with such freedom (you can DL and wrestle as the necronomicon....). I hope this does well and I hope they get cooler loading screens because this game is pretty darn cool

This game is awesome!! I love creating things.. I love creating things and watching them fight. This game allows me to do just that. The creation kit/wrestle factory is leaps and bounds above the rest. 2k what? Anyways, I'm addicted. Chikara Action Arcade Wrestling is Goodstuff! search @TheLargestDog ingame to download my creations/wrestlers.

I wish I could recommend this game. The short amount I got to play was fun, and I was strongly reminded of my favorite N64 wrestling games. Plus, creating wrestlers on the Wrestle Lab adds another great element. Unfortunately, after only a week, the game started crashing every time I loaded it. I reached out to the developers via Steam and Discord—no response. One year later, and it's still unplayable. It's cheap, but don't waste your money!

Seems like an unfinished game

The Good: *With 30 characters per page and over 120 pages, there are tons of created characters to add to your roster. Good ones at that! (limited to 60 DL's per day however) * AI vs AI matches are entertaining when you put difficulty to Hard. Otherwise there are points where they just stop and stare at each other. *Can have up to 10 guys in the ring at once for 5 vs 5 tag matches or battle royals, but can't have 30 man style Royal Rumbles. * Can add or remove dropped power ups to matches to make it feel either as Mario or as real as you want. *As far as I can tell right now, there is no download limit to what you can add to your roster. (there may be a memory limit however based off of your own hardware limitations) The Bad (kinda) *Limiting downloads per day to 60 is kinda dumb IMO. *Create a Championship is extremely limited. Nobody walks out with or holds a title so what's the point of even having this in game? *No entrances, so no music to walk down to. *No story mode from what I've seen. Might be a deal breaker for some. *AI is kinda easy on Hard difficulty but may be a challenge to casual players. *Can't edit any downloaded characters. So you are stuck with any misspellings or moves you don't want on a certain character. *There are no stats to edit per character, like zero stats in this game. It's two or more skins with move sets battling it out. Overall 6.5/10 The game is decent for what it is. I've turned my roster into kind of a MUGEN style setup with all the projectile style attacks the creators have added to their creations. Having a projectile throwing Kane and Undertaker go up against Kratos and Ryu brings back memories of MUGEN. This game has a lot of potential if the devs stick with it.

Oh what a little hidden gem. This game pops up while I search for others, it instantly reminds me of a wrestling arcade (might be from Capcom) I played as a kid, surprised me I still have that memory, This game has pretty solid gameplay - no additional cutscene so I imagine the money is well spent. The training session is serious and you need to pass everything to enter the game, which is good. I am using a keyboard but the key binding is comfortable and easy, I did not experience any difficulties. I played a bit against CPU but soon I found out the real fun is watching 3 vs 3 group wrestling, rather than participating. It comes to a mess of ridiculously hilarious gang fights. I don't watch much WWE but the pick-up and throws, various kinds of ground hits, dashes, items (bat, hammer, chairs) hit together with some specials including laser eyes and fire breath all look good, and feel authentic. There are around 10 characters to pick up, and the workshop allows new creations. I'd say it's more amusing than watching a real fight.
