Super Fighters Rampage

Super Fighters Rampage Walkthrough

If somebody told you that stick fighting games are boring and simplistic, he doesn't know what he's talking about. Make him play this game and he'll surely have a 180-degree change of opinion. Super Fighters Rampage is a sequel to Fighter's Rampage. It showcases all of the niceties that the previous game has, it comes with 9 selectable characters, and it also improves the graphics and game play

Just like Fighters Rampage, the objective of this fighting game is to beat the crap out of your opponent and defeat him. You go to the next round and rinse and repeat the whole process. Every battle lasts only for a round BUT there are no time limits. You will attack your opponents in an effort to drain their life bar. BUT keep in mind: the other guy will do the same so be more efficient in fighting. Don't give mercy for you shall receive none. Beat that fighter before you and you move on to the next round. Lose that battle and it's game-over.

Super Fighters Rampage has the same charm that Fighters Rampage has. HOWEVER, it comes with more features. The most noticeable, I think, is the Super Bar that's located just under your health bar. Back in the previous game, you can spam the Super Move at the expense of some health points. Well, that's not how it works here. You need to wait until the super bar is full to unleash devastation. There are a lot of nice things about this twist. For one thing, it forces you to be more discerning in using the super move. You don't want to waste it! PLUS, it no longer chomps on your health.

One more noticeable change is that it's much easier to do combo attacks and moves in this fighting game than in its predecessor. While the stick figures' movements cannot be compared to those of Ryu, Ken, or Chun-Li from Street Fighter, you can still chain some attacks together and bring the health bar of your opponent faster. And it's FUN!

Another fine addition to the game are the 3 new characters... giving you a total of 9 selectable characters. HOWEVER, my favorite still remains - Jake. This guy has A LOT of firearms and grenades. Every character in the game comes with their own fatality move, and this is executed by clicking on your defeated foe. If it's your first time playing the game, I suggest that you try out ALL of the characters, see what their fatality moves are, and pick your favorite.

Oh! One more thing: for button mashers out there, don't be shy! Do your thing! Mash your keyboard and spam moves in this stick figure fighting game. After all, the AI uses the same moves over and over again. Why not do the same and knock those show-offs out? Well, just between you and me, I love to turtle in my corner. I just hold down the block button, and counterattack when the opportunity presents itself. It's not sophisticated or awesome. BUT it work against the AI. Against human players, though, I'm not sure how that tactic would fare.

Summing things up, if you enjoyed the first fighting game from this series - Fighters Rampage, you will surely LOVE what this sequel has to offer. What are you waiting for? Go knockout those sticks!
