It reminds me of everything I loved about old arcade games, all in a fun little package. If you ever wanted to try a beat-em-up, give this game a go.

This is my first genuine and honest review for anything I've played. This game is purely amazing. I can't put into words how thrilling and satisfying this game is. The various kills you can do in this game is truly artistic and beautiful. One of my friends recommended this to me. and it didn't disappoint. Get this game if you wanna see truly blissful violence from the Cooler Rambo that is Shank.
