Critic Reviews for River City: Knights of Justice
River City: Knights of Justice is an excellent beat 'em up on the whole.
River City: Knights of Justice is a fun little side story in the Kunio-kun series. It's not exactly varied, but it features a satisfying challenge and familiar beat 'em up mechanics that fans are sure to love.
River City: Knights of Justice has the potential to be a quick and dirty fantasy brawl, but instead it ends up a tedious exercise in frustration.
Everyone should consider giving Knights of Justice the download it deserves, as it's proof positive that, at six years old, 3DS is still home to some of the most fun and innovative games on the market.
River City: Knights of Justice is a game that tries a lot of new things and succeeds at few of them. Despite some clever ideas and a bolder approach to combat, the lack of progression, difficulty, and an engaging plot prevents this River City game from reaching its potential.
Although it's not the best Kunio-kun game, River City: Knights of Justice features enough crazy beat 'em up gameplay and classic humour to satisfy any fan of the series.
If you're a fan of Kunio you've probably already made up your mind on getting River City: Knights of Justice. I can honestly say that any fan of the series will be more than happy with what Arc System Works and Natsume has created. They took a huge risk by changing River City's setting and placing it in a medieval time period, but it totally paid off and it works beautifully! I can't wait to see what they do next!
