Wreak havoc in in the open-world of Retro City Rampage! You’ll meet a variety of very familiar characters, including a certain time-travelling scientist, engage in various modes of gameplay such as stealth, platforming, early coin-ops, and even encounter radioactive plumbers who await with eager anticipation their chance to murder and masticate you, The Player! But, wait, there’s more! Stomp on hapless pedestrians like they are Goombas and claim your coin. While you are taking the world by storm, you’ll encounter a few guest stars such as Super Meat Boy, Splosion Man and Ms. Splosion, and BIT.TRIP Runner. Last but not least, you’ll be able to tear through Minecraft for even more crossover goodness!

You are out on a lovely jaunt of CRIME CAPERS when you were ambushed by the EVIL GOOD GUYS, who will stop at nothing to end your RAMPAGE OF DOOM throughout Theftropolis City. Retro City Rampage is a parodic paean to old-school gaming and the culture of the 80’s, referencing many classic game experiences while providing modern-day open-world mechanics, all wrapped in glorious 8-bit graphical goodness.

Are you a bad enough dude to defeat the EVIL GOOD GUYS?
  • Includes ROM City Rampage, a hardware accurate prototype!
  • Take part in more than 60 story missions that mix elements of driving, stealth, platforming, and more!
  • Huge open world to explore as well as over 40 arcade challenges--if you want to jump right into the action
  • Explore the city of Theftropolis and enjoy the casino games, bars, barbers, and arcades
  • Weapons include a light gun, a bionic arm, and even a ghost-busting proton gun!

Game Revolutionby Kevin Schaller
4/5 stars
The amazing thing about the world of RCRDX is that all of the references made are overt and recognizable, yet blends into the background so easily. Witty throwback ZERO WING reference and almost-Little Mac's trailer on a billboard? Running people over with generic replicas of the Turtle Van or a Vespa scooter, then abusing the Mariachi just to take his guitar for some pitch-perfect head wounds? If you’re an old-schooler who needs a retro fix, there are very few games that can fit the bill better than RETRO CITY RAMPAGE DX.

Way to short but amazing.

Must-buy game for all retro fans. Great music and fun gameplay but, for shame, it is tooooo short. Anyway - worth every single cent you pay for it.

Well worth the LONG wait.....

Well, I have been waiting for this game ever since the long mentioned Grand Theftendo and I have to say it was definitely worth the wait. If you are a fan of the original GTA games from the 90's (top down) then you'll definitely love this one. Even if you're not a GTA fan you'll still love this one. Over the top 80's references abound in this game. Buy it now, stop reading this and just buy it already!!!

I like it

I find this nice little gem very fun even if it lives up to it's name. Goes to show you you do not need graphics that are out this world to have fun. Hope the game gets expanded.

No key rebinding...

...unacceptable for a PC game, especially because "retro" PC games had this as a standard feature in the mid-90s. One star because it's unplayable like this.

Imagine if we had this in cartridge form in the 80s and 90s??? This would be the best NES/SNES game evar!
