DESCRIPTION

Retro Game Challenge aims to offer a fanciful, fictional retrospective of 8-bit gaming in the 1980s, suitable for gamers of any generation. Combining the short-attention span pacing of the WarioWare series with nostalgia for video gaming's golden age, the game presents players with quick runs at arcade-era styled shooter, racer, platform, and RPG action. In a true retro fashion, the action attempts to capture the play style and feel of vintage coin-op classics, through original new mini-games and sequences that, with a little imagination, could have been created twenty years earlier. Further placing players in the moment, mock-up magazines announce game industry news of the era, including the video game crash of 1983. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
