This is the first game on Steam I am writing a review for. The game is SOOO meta! I absolutely LOVED it, incredibly fun and challenging! The music is great, the art style is simple but awesome! I started with the demo before the release and played through as Lord Snicklefritz because obviously he’s got the best name in the game! I jumped straight into Nightmare Mode and struggled on the first boss a little until I got used to the controls (I used Xbox controller, but I did remap some of the buttons).

I highly recommend giving this game a try if you enjoy 2D games or boss fights. The devs have been a pleasure to work with and have promptly fixed any bugs that were found. Each boss fight features unique mechanics and patterns that you have to learn and each character has their own set of attacks and abilities making each playthrough a new experience. The soundtrack is very well done and compliments the game and characters without being overbearing. The writing can be a bit cringe, but often in a hilarious way as long as you don’t take it too seriously (and you shouldn’t, because it doesn’t take itself very seriously either) and the modern culture references are very amusing. All in all, a very entertaining and well done first game release by MiSou Games. I’ve had a blast playing and my viewers and I have had some great laughs with this game. It’s an amazing value at this price and I’ll be picking up a copy for my girlfriend as well.

Chenso Club

Chenso Club

The alien invaders are everywhere, attacking everything and everyone! And when they die, the life-force they leave behind is an ultra-incredible energy source! Is there any hope?

Meet the Chenso Club: a growing group of fighters here to save the world. They’re using the aliens’ life-force to power up and beat them at their own game. Don’t let their adorable nature fool you - they will happily and brutally obliterate any threat that gets in their way.

Meet Blue, a powerful android developed in a lab where an alien discovery was used to ultra-boost her power. Her weapon of choice is a mean chainsaw and a charmingly destructive attitude.

Carmine is a highly-trained member of the royal guard, tasked with protecting the King. After a surprise alien attack, her King is now being held hostage and her honor demands that she save the day. Her weapon of choice is a giant hammer, infused with the power of alien essence. Her activity of choice is destroying aliens every chance she gets.

Plum’s favorite hobby is trying out different kinds of witchcraft. This bubbly character spends most of her day at the abandoned clock tower. What she doesn’t know is that the clock tower is now haunted by creepy monsters from another universe!

Remember! The Chenso Club is growing - so more characters are on their way!

  • Collect life force from aliens you kill: Trade for power-ups to make your fighter faster and stronger—but don’t spend it all! That life force also keeps YOU alive.

This “review” summarises my early impressions after having played this game for about 6 or 7 hours. I may update it when I learn something worth adding or changing.

Edit: Having played more than 30 hours, I find the game more interesting than before. I’ve updated my review, but decided to put the update in a forum post.

My original review:

In a nutshell: I recommend this game wholeheartedly to all players who are willing to adjust to somewhat unusual game mechanics and to cope with sometimes lengthy turn-based fights. And I recommend to try the free-to-play version first. Go through a few fights, and then make up your mind. Be prepared for some initial frustration, because fights can be lengthy, with both you and your opponent missing most of the time. You may decide that this is too boring and not worth your time. But you may also take it as a motivation to find out why there are so many misses and what you can do to hit more often - which is not so difficult once you understand the game mechanics and rules better. You can experiment (the fighting log tells you exactly what is going on), or you can read the great guide which you can access via the Steam Guides section of the game. There is also an interactive tutorial, which focusses mainly on the fighting system, but may be a bit too abstract to be used for your very first fight(s). It may be better to start playing without the tutorial, and to play it after your first, say, two or three fights, or in conjunction with reading the guide.
