I love this game, I played it both alone and with a friend and is incredible funny and silly at times, the pixel art is also pretty good, if anything at least try it, and remember that friendly fire is always an option.

Every bit as funny as the trailer makes it seem, and also a darn solid beat-em-up. Collectible stuff very slightly tiresome, but no biggie, use a FAQ. Great fun.

River City Girls is a fantastic beat 'em up that's a blast to play. However, if you're planning to play it on Steam Deck, be aware that you might encounter some missed cutscenes. Thankfully, you can easily skip these. Despite this minor hiccup, the game is a joy to experience. The combat is fluid and satisfying, and the colorful pixel art style is visually appealing. While some achievements require two players, the game can be comfortably completed solo within a week. I highly recommend River City Girls to fans of the genre and anyone looking for a fun and engaging beat 'em up experience.

This is a phenomenal beat ‘em up. It’s full of really fun combos, oozing with style & charm, & it has a well implemented progression system. My only problem is that the writing falls flat quite a bit, but still, this was a joy to play from beginning to end.
