Awesome beat em up goodness River city girls is a fantastic beat em up. Released only a couple months ago, River city girls has gone up the ranks to be as good as the games that inspired it. Developed by Wayforward, Creators of the Shantae series, River City Girls has girfriends, Kyoko and Misako on a quest to save their kidnapped boyfriends, Kunio and Riki. That's pretty much the entire plot. Slim sure but you're not playing this game for the plot. You're playing it for the heart pumping dumb fun that a good beat em up should do. This game does that and more. Along with the great gameplay, this game has an awesome soundtrack full of adrenaline filled Instrumentals to almost jazz like vocal tracks and all of them sounding amazing. Overall this is one of the best beat em ups I've played in a long time and right up there with Streets of Rage 2 as one of my favorite beat em ups ever.
