Don't Mess With Rick
A pulp story lead by highly animated graphics and exciting gameplay is the recipe to celebrate the 90s, the arcade beat'em up golden decade. This street rumble is set across four different stages. After being kicked out of his mob family by his father, Rick seeks for his revenge by beating all its members and aiming to become the new boss. While not engaged by typical bonus stages and cutscenes, the player is armed with a rich combat system made up by combos, clinch, projections, parries, and counterattacks, as well as handy and throwing weapons like knives or nunchuks. Furthermore, a loading bar allows him to perform four super special, ultra scenic moves. Fight on your way through huge bosses, replicant ninjas, dangerous traps, rabid dogs, and ... the fury of your own bloodline!
