The side-scrolling platform-shooter is an under represented genre on the App Store. There are a few examples, but they're mainly ports of older arcade games. While they're entertaining enough, most of them are more than a decade old.
Enter Ravenous Games, creator of the hugely enjoyable League of Evil series, and its latest pixel-art concoction Random Heroes. It's a brilliant blast influenced by the past, freshened up with bite-sized levels and smart design, and overflowing with enemies, bullets, and coins.
Summary
Fast paced, gorgeous, and violent in all the right ways, Random Heroes deserves to be played by as many people as possible
RATING
9/10
