There's trouble once again on the mean streets of River City! Hard-hitting heroines Misako and Kyoko are tearing up the town to rescue their boyfriends, Kunio and Riki, and they won't let anyone get in their way! As you punch and kick your way across the city, you'll gain new skills, chow down on power-ups, wield bone-busting weapons, and unleash an arsenal of combos, throws, and special attacks that will leave the bad guys crying for mama - all in outrageous pixel-art style! The awesome action is punctuated by motion-comic story panels, anime cutscenes, multiple endings, and an epic synth-pop soundtrack. This version of the game features touchscreen or Bluetooth controller support for solo play (Bluetooth controllers required for 2-player co-op) as well as River City's newest shopkeeper: Crunchyroll-Hime!

Ratings and reviews

Aside from the fact that the game requires an active Crunchyroll subscription, I find the port to be pretty good. The touchscreen controls are okay, for the most part. I wish there would have been an option to change the layout because I prefer the block button to be closer to that of attack. Thankfully, you can use Bluetooth controllers and they work the exact same way as in the other platforms. Multiplayer only works for one device and requires 2 controllers. Hope to see RCG2 get a port!

The problem with the game isn't that you have to pay money for the game. It the fact the game doesn't want to load. I bought the membership that is need for the game and downloaded it. Tried booting the game up. Goes to the logo and crashes. Repeats 4 more times. After 20 minutes I get to the next "loading screen" the Crunchyroll logo. It crashes 3 more times. Booted it up again and if finally able to put my information in to play the game. Did everything and the game crashs. Please fix this.

Downloaded, then subscribed to their $9.99 required membership only to discover the game doesn't even work. It loads up I into the classroom and that's it. Can't move, or do anything. Like the touch controls were never actually implemented into the game. Big disappointment. Crunchyroll and this developer dropped the ball big-time. Reply to dev response: No, your product sucks, and was clearly not tested sufficiently before extorting subscription fees from people. No wonder it only has a 2.7/5.0
