A Short Game Burdened by Its Controls
“Tonight We Riot” is a perfect mixture of “Tooth and Tail” and “Nuclear Throne.” If you enjoyed either of those games, you will enjoy this one. “Tonight We Riot” encapsulates you with a vivid atmosphere that is supported greatly by a spartan but excellent soundtrack, and I felt the difficult was perfect for me, considering I seldom play games of this genre. The story is interesting and original, and despite its seemingly crass nature, the game presents mature notions to consider that you will mull over even after you have stopped playing it. “Tonight We Riot” has some issues, however. The game is short, and it does not have as much replay value as either of its aforementioned competitors. Its controls can be cumbersome at times too. Fighting enemies’ drones is frustrating. It is unintuitive and unnecessarily difficult to land blows on the flying adversaries. Sometimes, your fellow workers succeed immediately, and at other times, they miss perpetually until they are slain. It is baffling. Sometimes, too, I wanted my comrades to remain somewhere only for them to throw themselves onto the enemy shortly thereafter. It is issues like these that make this otherwise fun game frustrating at times. Overall, “Tonight We Riot” is an excellent and fun game whose efforts are undermined only by its occasionally cumbersome controls. It is certainly worth playing.
