River City: Rival Showdown Review (mr burns)
A good remaster of the 3DS game released in 2016. Everything with the gameplay I've seen so far has for the most part been kept the same with a few positive changes being made to things like the combat and other general QOL changes that were made in Three Kingdoms. It seems like the game has been re-translated for English as well which is very nice, as the 3DS version was serviceable but contained a handful of errors and dated localisations. Online play worked nicely too!
This game is a re-telling of Downtown Nekketsu Story (the Japanese version of River City Ransom) that drastically changes the gameplay when compared, but has a far more involved story that kept me pretty invested on my first playthrough. Many of the secondary characters have a lot more time to shine in the game's cutscenes while also introducing a handful of new characters.
I believe this game will be enjoyable for any existing fans of the franchise, for those who may be looking to get into the main series, or for anyone looking for something with a more involved story. There's multiple endings and it entirely depends on how you choose to spend the three days you got till the final day!
