RADical ROACH Remastered is a side-scrolling arcade shooter developed and published by DL Softworks that takes a deliberately ridiculous concept and turns it into a fast-paced action game filled with colorful visuals, nonstop enemy encounters, and old-school arcade sensibilities. Set in a bizarre post-nuclear future, the game places players in the role of a mutated cockroach that has survived a global catastrophe and emerged with extraordinary abilities.

Rating: 8.0/10 RADical ROACH Remastered is a fast-paced arcade shooter that takes a completely ridiculous concept and turns it into a surprisingly fun action experience.

The game is simple, weird, and doesn't try to be anything more than a fun old-school shoot 'em up.

The bugs will attack!
