Best 1980s Replay Value Games on PC

Trivia Vault: Soccer Trivia

Got this game as a discount coupon while crafting badges and decided why not try the game as it’s a trivia quiz game.

The game was surely made only to spam you with 5k achievements. It means this game have no value for the game-play value, and it was made only to bring you 5000 of worthless achievements which are all same.

Pros

1. 5000 Achievements on your Profile

2. Easy achievements Login Play and Quit the game you are done.

3. The Trivia is quite good

Cons

1. All 5000 Achievements are same and a spam

Hyper Jam

This is Hyper Jam

, a retro themed fast paced arena figther, that keeps you focused and tryingharding, you need to win, no matter what. What makes this game so great are multiple things:

**The Music: **Just amazing 80’s synthwave/retro electro music that hypes you up, makes you feel connected to the game, and just feels good to listen to.

Even if you are waiting for a game, it’s just nice to listen to while waiting, building the hype for the upcoming game, and keeping the hype from the last one. Simply perfect.****

Hyper Jam is one of the most polished indie titles I’ve ever played, and probably one of the best couch-competitive games out there.

The combat feels like it’s hit the perfect spot between too simple and too complex - everyone can understand and use each mechanic, but there’s enough depth for die-hards and experienced players to perfect and start pulling off impressive plays. The perk system makes every match feel different, and combined with the barrages you can send down when knocked out, helps equalize the playing field a little.

School $ sim + tutorial - some minor bugs = Finally the English translation is here. The mechanics are pretty interesting and has a slight learning curve since there are several variables to play.

Trivia Vault: TV Trivia

Pretty much every game in this series bundle or every game made by these developers comes with achievements already unlocked, you start the game run for a minute close it and all the achievements or the single achievement unlocks.

These games whether it’s the Trivia Games, the Word Search or the Picture search game, they are all reskins of each other, the concept behind these are all plain and boring, no creativity went into any of these games, you buy these games purely for the +1 to your Game and Perfect Game count and nothing more. That is the only reason why i’m giving it a positive review, i knew before hand what these games were about and that’s why i decided to buy them.

This game is trash, but I guess 5000 instant achievements is nice.

Razortron 2000

A top down racing game where you have to avoid crashing into the walls (and if going more than medium pace, cars which spin you into walls if you hit them) and run over the petrol pumps to extend your timer - while it seems like it should be a fuel gauge, it goes down at the same speed whether you are going top speed or crawling along at a snails pace, so functionally it is a timer. This gives the odd situation that if you are running low on “fuel” you have to nail the accelerator in the hope you make it to the next fuel station in time.

When I saw this I thought “Road Fighter clone?! I NEED THIS!”

After playing I was disappointed to find out it’s not. If you bump into a car you can’t stop spinning and you crash. The fuel is not in the form of a rainbow car that is driving on the road but a drawing of a gas station pump that is on the road. There is not enough space shown on top of the screen to let you see the fuel on time and pick it up and you often run out of it unless you are lucky to get one spawn right in front of you. Have to constantly slow down to grab fuel because of the idiotic gameplay mechanics listed above. The graphics are pretty simplistic, there are barely any animations, the few that are in there are really basic as well.

Trivia Vault: 1980’s Trivia

The whole design is decent for a quizz game and fulfills its purpose. Replayability is low as soon as the same question reappear.

The single achievement unlocks instantly. Looking at how many different Trivia games with a single achievement are uploaded, they seem to mainly be targeted at achievement hunters.

No clue if the 250 questions are all self written or from an external source, but it seems like a fair amount for the price of 0,99€.

You get what you paid for, 5K achievements at minimum price. If you’re an achievement hunter looking to increase the number of achievements on your profile showcase, then I highly recommend buying this. Else don’t waste your money. This is not a game, it’s just a way of distributing achievements.

MY 1980’s DASHBOARD

I like these kinds of racing games, they’re really fun and not many people are making them, so it’s cool to see someone is supporting this genre. Overall it controls well and it looks good, there’s only a few little complaints I have with it. For the aesthetics, when you’re playing in classic mode the speedometer isn’t pixelated, the font isn’t very good looking, and I think the background is always a snowy mountain and pine trees regardless of what level you’re on. For the gameplay there’s not much to change, drifting would be great addition because slowing down to go around a sharp turn is really unsatisfying, that’s really it. The music is empty sounding and none of the songs made me exited to drive. I think I heard all the songs, tracks don’t seem to have their own music, it just picks a random song from a little library, if I’m wrong then maybe the songs sound really similar.

This game is a throwback to the racing games of the 1980’s (hence the name).

There’s no fancy graphics, no relistic handling, no gears to worry about, just straight out race to complete each stage before the time runs out.

There are a handful of pleasant chip style tunes and sound FX, both of which can be toggled off if desired.

Control is by keyboard, or use a utility such as Xpadder to map the controls to your control stick/pad of choice.

The game is very easy to play and FUN. Good for a quick game when you have a few minutes or even an hour or two, trying to beat each stage.

Roguebreaker

It has been a pleasure working with Josh Bergasse to playtest Roguebreaker and watch it develop from the earlier builds. The game has come a long way, and I honestly believe that Josh has created a product worthy of your time and attention.

Roguebreaker is a passion project that Josh wanted to see come to fruition long before coding even began. The concept of an 80s themed arcade game with modern conveniences and features (level editor, workshop support, incredible powerups, etc.) was one that he knew would be a perfect blend, and he was right.

This review was not sponsored by, or paid for by, any entity or being in all of creation. There was a free key given to me, simply because they wanted exposure. so. here it is.

RogueBreaker is a hellishly fun game that aesthetically takes you back to the NES days of Arkanoid (if you remember that). Its music is absolutely immersive and brutal, but also light hearted. Its gameplay is friendly to start off with, but it gets harder…and harder… and harder… AND HARDER until it goes absolutely APE!@#$ insane!.
