About Berzerk: Recharged
Chicken, fight like a robot! Evil Otto and his deadly robots are back in this reimagining of the 1980 arcade classic Berzerk. Berzerk: Recharged challenges you to fight your way through a deadly maze filled with waves of menacing, vocal robots. Deft twin-stick control and power-ups are the only way to survive, as you shoot your way through room after room in this never-ending dystopian maze. And don’t forget, Evil Otto may have a smile on his face, but he is deadly and invincible.
As with all Recharged games, you can chase a high score in arcade mode, or take on one of the many hand-crafted challenges to test your shooting and dodging skills. If things get too hard, you can always grab a friend to double your firepower in local-co-op.
Megan McDuffee’s original soundtrack of sci-fi synths captures the ambiance of a harrowing space station shootout – and a very cool 80s arcade.

Played this one for 76 minutes, got all the achievements, and will never play it again. A very soulless and rather buggy remake of the original Berzerk with very disappointing power-ups. I got it on sale and I still feel ripped off. Developer SneakyBox is known for releasing games and leaving them to die, so don't expect to see any bug fixes or quality-of-life improvements for their games. You're also stuck with the controls the devs have decided for you -- they can't be remapped.5 found this helpful

Here are the pros & cons of Beserk: Recharge as I see it. Pros: 1. Beserk: Recharge is not the original Beserk arcade game, but that does not make it bad, just a revisioned twist that grow on you with time. Cons: 1. WHAT WAS ATARI THINKING!!! The original Beserk arcade game should come with this game, and not just available on Atari 50! I am not going to buy Atari 50 just for the original game, especially considering I already have most of the Atari 50 games on Atari Vault. Plus, new and veteran players of Beserk could enjoy seeing and playing both versions and see the evolution of the game.1 found this helpful
