Ragebounds' combat is simple but effective, with cathartic gameplay slicing up demons by the dozens.

Amazing soundtrack, beautiful graphics, super high quality and tight gameplay, and even a decent story if you like this kind of campy fast paced over the top NG style story but with extra icing.

46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The pumped up soundtrack really fit the vibe and while it's not something i'd listen to outside of the game it was a very nice companion to keep the pace.

With top notch pixel art graphics and fluid gameplay, you are driven through an easily likable game which is sure to be one – if not the best – game in 2025 in terms of retro gaming.
