Sep 6, 2019Though River City Girls may be called a side story in this universe, it has become one of my favorite games of the year.

Apr 27, 2020I'd classify River City Girls as a fun, anime-inspired romp that's worth the time if you're looking for a balance between the visceral satisfaction you get from pummeling enemies on-screen and some of the off-center humor one can find in pieces like "Scott Pilgrim vs The World." It has that kind of vibe, and it's a great change of pace from the more heavy-handed stuff out there.

Sep 5, 2019As a huge fan of all things Kunio-kun, I must say that I'm extremely impressed with River City Girls. In fact, it may just be the best game in the franchise. Sorry if you're reading this, Kunio and Riki, but these girls proved to be more kickass than you are.

Sep 2, 2019River City Girls gives the beat-em-up genre a new lease on life with its solid combat, stellar spritework, and sprawling world. Those that can stomach some backtracking will find an adventure worthy of biffing a few baddies over.

Sep 6, 2019A fantastic scrolling beat āem-ups that shows exactly how the genre can be evolved and modernised, while also indulging in some gloriously retro presentation and throwbacks.

Sep 26, 2019River City Girls brought me so much joy, and playing it with my roommate we beat it in two days without taking too many breaks. Itās fantastic to have a couch co-op game that takes all of the classic elements of beat-āem-ups and gives them an upgrade that feels modern and fresh. I canāt remember the last time I played a beat-āem-up that had both a fun and entertaining story, but was also great to play, even with its few frustrations.

Oct 2, 2019I wanted to love River City Girls. A modern side scrolling beat 'em up, from a proven developer like WayForward, with bright, bold visuals, and two kick-ass heroines should have been great. Instead, thanks to way too much repetitive grinding, River City Girls is a bit boring. Something I never thought I'd say about a game that has high school children hitting zombie cheerleaders with wrenches.
