Foul Play
So after checking the game and playing it completely,I think I can give a fair review of this game.
First of all, what you should expect when you play Foul Play:
You should like beat-em-ups with 2d sprites and all the cons that come with it (bad lineup,more “That should have hit”-moments).
You should like the general idea of a game having a theatre-like feeling.
However, you should not expect a hard game when playing. Elaboration on why later on.
Story: You control Sebastian Dashforth,who combined with his assistant Scampwick Steerpipe is presenting his life as a daemonologist on stage, re-enacting the main events of Dashforth’s last 20 years. Not fearing to go into hand-on-hand combat he and Scampwick are fighting themselves through an lost city of egypt, cursed villages, underwater cities and a london in control of a cult.Fairly generous with the humor and honest (though you may not thank him for it) he will keep you interested to keep playing for a while.

Lot’s of fun and action to be had with this enjoyable side-scrolling beat’em up!
Developed by Mediatonic and The Irregular Corporation, this game was released in 2013 and published by Devolver Digital. Devolver Digital has published games such as Shadow Warrior 2, Hotline Miami and Broforce. The developers have produced less well-known games to date.
The game is full of action. You can achieve combo multipliers of over 300+. That’s a lot of consecutive hits!
You can only play as one character. You are basically an actor on stage with an audience. The more combo’s and more hits you make on your enemies, the more your audience approval goes up and the quicker you can get the audience to fully approve your performance, the quicker you can unlock youir special move and unleash a lot of hits.

Speed Brawl
Speed Brawl is one of those games that I’m not really sure of how it ended up in my library. Must’ve been something like a Humble Bundle? Regardless, that is a damn shame, because I genuinely wish I had purchased this game at full price.
Speed Brawl is a 2D sidescrolling brawler, where speed is your friend. It features one of the most satisfying combat systems I’ve played. The faster you move, the more damage you do. You can pick between 6 different characters (you start with 2 and unlock the others later), and you tag team the levels. This means that you can swap between 2 characters at your leisure. The game also features couch and online co-op, and online leaderboards.

Its fun game 9/10 I’d say
It has charm, style and a great sound track. Dialouige isnt afraid to be rude at times, I honestly kinda wish this was somesorta TV series or somthing, the setting and style and intro cut scene really get me pulled into the world.
Combat is Pretty on point, camera is a bit shakey and some moves behave strangely but never really enough to pull me from the game (use a controller if you can Keyboard works but its a lot easier and more fluent with a controller)
The characters fight fairly differently, have special abities that fit them, and a leveling system, witch i think could have used
