UNBEATABLE Reviews
It is difficult to tell if I am judging Unbeatable harshly because of how good it should be or I’m being too forgiving over how good I want it to be. At the end of the day, it’s a moot point. Unbeatable, as an experience, is not where it needs to be.
UNBEATABLE is an excellent experience, and one that I'll likely be playing far into the future through its included Arcade mode. The vibes are immaculate, and I'm pretty well satisfied with the overall package. But a bit more time expanding the story and fixing up some notable issues could easily have taken this game from "great" to "spectacular."
Unbeatable is rhythm, rebellion, and nostalgia in one package—a seemingly simple two-button game that reveals itself as a story-driven adventure carried by music and emotion, with young layered characters, a phenomenal soundtrack, an anime-on-CRT visual vibe, some technical stumbles and on-screen chaos, yet a flow of riffs and feelings that, if you let it take you, strikes a tender chord.
