One thing to note about the physical version is it will probably be a while before it ships out -it's an open pre-order for a month- and then they will submit orders for manufacturing. So if you want to play it anytime soon, get it digitally.

Apparently, there will be upwards of 50 enemies in the game, and players will be able to somehow convince all of them to join your side. In an interview with OnlySP, Wayforward's Adam Tierney compared the system to Pokémon, though, in place of animals that can manipulate a variety of elements, River City Girls will feature assisting fighters that come in the form of brightly-colored anime schoolgirls. As such, there appears to be quite a bit of innovation on the River City Girls developer's end.

BTW, every other ad for iOS games in Japan seems to be some kind of anime-girl collector. It's... disturbing.

That's what basically every Japanese mobile game is. Or at least all of the popular ones.

Yup. The other half are sengoku-era battle-fests and maybe mah-jongg.

Both of those also have anime girls usually.

It's true; the Venn diagram of anime girl representation in Japanese mobile games is fairly transgressively overlapping.

Reports are that there's a new game+ option once you finish that changes things up and effectively doubles the length of the game. Guessing it's playing as the guys with a new story?

Almost all of the dialogue is fully-voiced and Misuzu got an animated intro before the boss battle. I can see why this is a little bit higher-priced than your average indie game now. And it's worth it!

After you beat the first boss, you get a key to the locked doors in the school and can find the Russian chef for a quest!

Legit good. The negative I've encountered so far is performance issues- it takes a hit on large areas. Doesn't affect gameplay thankfully, but you can tell the framerate has dropped.

It's very much a RCR game in that it's not a straight beat-em-up and you will be running around town doing things. When you're walking around, you can choose to fight or run past enemies, although it's worth fighting since you level up and get money. You get new moves when you level up and you can also go to the dojo run by one of the Double Dragons and buy special moves. So the more you play, the more the attacks you can do opens up and it plays better as you go along.

If you want a straight beat-em-up, this is not your game, but I think most people would expect that from this.

Do you have to take turns shopping/levelling up in co op like dragons crown or can you both do it at the same time?

I'm gonna buy this anyway because it's extremely my shit but i just wanna know. my pet peeve is co op games where you have to wait around for someone to do something

Quote

A story set shortly after Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari…

At Reihou Academy were the “Reuhou Big Four” feared by nearby schools. The man that reigns at the top of that group is Masao Kobayashi. But there was another side to him…

After a “certain incident” when he was in middle school, Kobayashi met a young man named Kouki Mizoguchi. Mizoguchi is a man of mystery chasing down an “evil organization.”

Mizoguchi, who noticed a glimpse of a “certain power” within Kobayashi, works alongside Kobayashi to destroy to evil organization.

One day, Kobayashi’s friend is kidnapped by the evil organization. Kobayashi plays it cool, but inside he was enraged…

To save his friend and destroy the organization, Kobayashi will fight against the evil organization.

Not sure. I can try having a second player join when I get a chance and see what happens!
