The fan service abounds in this one
Broforce is a campy send-up of many of the action movies of the '80s and '90s, with a healthy dollop of American patriotism on top that straddles the line between awesome and sly jabs at the same. The biggest attraction is the number of action movie stars you can recruit into your Broforce. If you can think of it, it's likely in here. So as not to give away some of the surprise, you start as "Rambro", and go from there, picking up characters that stand in for Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chuck Norris, and even a few women like Ripley from the Alien movies. With "bro" in the name, of course. Each of the "bros" has different capabilities, from their speed, to how their shots behave, to even their melee and special moves. Playing around with each new one you rescue is probably the most fun in the game. The game itself is actually not what you'd expect. It's certainly frenetic, but it's not quite a Contra-style run-and-gun. See, each bro is very, very easy to kill, and you'll need to save more of them through each stage. And stages are packed with all sorts of hazards that will kill you... or your enemy. In fact, things are so destructible that the game actually feels like what you might get if you combined Contra and Worms (without the multi-directional fire, sadly). It's certainly unique, and much of the challenge hinges on finding efficient routes through the stage, and using the environment to wreak havoc on your enemy. Your bros are also rather tiny. It makes packing in detail on them tough, but at the same time, it maximizes the screen area for destructibility. And destroy you will; enemies will be gorily dismembered in many, many ways. It's a fairly puerile sense of humor, but it works for this game. Overall, it's a solid game, just don't expect a straight run-and-gun. It's more a puzzle-shooter, something that requires you to slow down and think a little bit to really be effective and reach the end. Give it a shot if that sounds appealing!
