A really interesting roguelike beat 'em up, with a relatively simple combat system, but that makes up for that with its referential sense of humor, multiple routes to take on each run, and some really engaging boss fights. Good game!

What I'm trying to say is: keep an open mind to new experiences; you never know when you'll stumble upon a new favorite.

Castle Crashers is a very funny game, with plenty of visual gags and quips sprinkled throughout. But it's also a really good beat 'em up, with plenty of variety, a really satisfying little combat system and some of the coolest boss fights in the genre.

The TakeOver is a game that proudly embraces its inspirations, yet still manages to forge its own identity thanks to a unique and striking presentation, and a very satisfying combat system.
There are also explosions. Lots and lots of explosions. So, you know, good stuff.

So, to celebrate, I'm going to dedicate this week to some of my favorite modern beat 'em ups, highlighting one per day until the big day. We'll have turtles, knights, angry teenagers, and a whole lot of rage in the streets. Let's do this!

includes MK1 + MK11 + MKX and related DLCs
Cheaper than MK1:DE itself
This show had a surprisingly solid lineup of games back in the day, courtesy of Konami back when it was at its peak. And among them was a really fun and chaotic compilation of sports games, and one of my favorite multiplayer titles from that era.

Today I stumbled opon this roguelike beat 'em up called Streets of Red, and turns out it is made by the same studio as Double Dragon Gaiden, one of my favorites of all time.
Needless to say, I spent the whole afternoon playing it 🔥

Easily one of the best beat 'em ups of all time, it wasn't the first game in the genre that I played, but it was definitely the one that ignited my passion for it. The combat feels amazing, it looks really slick, and dude, THAT SOUNDTRACK!! I just love this one.

It doesn't matter the genre, if you think it's worth playing, then throw it my way!
(The GIF is from The Pathless, and I recommend it to everyone, it's a wonderful game)

Capcom took a quick glance at the Wii Remote and went like, "dude, I have like 200 ideas on how to use this controller." And that's how one of the most charming and creative adventure games the company has ever made was born.

Personally❓
Give me portal 3. It’s criminal that it hasn’t had a sequel in forever.

Needless to say, this whole thing makes me very disappointed. Oh well.

Decided to come with a banger today. Peak Castlevania goodness, starring a fan-favorite Belmont and offering a challenging and highly replayable adventure, thanks to its multiple alternate paths. Also, it has one of the greatest soundtracks in all of gaming.

Squaresoft's run on the PS1 has got to be one of the strongest in all of gaming, and I'm not even an RPG guy.
(I know three of these games are technically RPGs, but I digress)
