Bomb Rush Cyberfunk

Gameplay is a lot of fun. Focused on exploration and letting you decide how you want to explore the world with a decent amount of hidden areas reachable by using all available movement mechanics in the game. Soundtrack is good enough reason on its own to recommend this game.

this game is a master peace

A great, but flawed game. The core skating gameplay controls well and levels are large and designed for you to make routes that rack up crazy combo multipliers while exploring them, while sometimes you'll need to keep your eyes peeled for gaps that hold collectibles. But to me, this game really feels like a celebration of many different types of art. The music, graffiti, dances and art style just ooze charm and really made me immersed in the vibe this game was going for. Just all top notch stuff, I love it. I do wish there were more complex tricks that you could pull off, though. It feels a bit limited in that regard. The much bigger flaws only really start when you look at everything surrounding the gameplay. I can excuse some of it, as I don't think a skating game needs an in-depth combat system, but the combat is really... not good for how much the story wants you to do it. The story also isn't anything crazy, but I thought it was neat. It's also really easy all the way through, which was disappointing. I think a challenge mode or something post-game would've worked really well. (Also, just a tiny nitpick for like 4 levels that you go through once: the blur effect used is kind of nauseating to experience.) As of writing this review, I've just beaten the game's story, but I do plan on cleaning up all the other achievements because the game is really fun to play. I dig it.
