Video Review

Ranking:

A great looking-game with really lovely spritework. Everyone is lovingly animated and fun to watch. The stages are sadly static, which drags things down a little bit, but the majority of the game is pleasant to look at. It's not the prettiest fighter around, by any measure, but Examu's done well with what feels like a low-budget effort.

Audio Review

Ranking:

I can't say I remember a single track from the game, but at the same time, I don't remember any of it being bad. It's fairly generic fighting game music that keeps things appropriately exciting, but doesn't do a single thing beyond that.

Final Thoughts

'Nitroplus Blasterz: Heroines Infinite Duel' likely won't capture a major audience within the fighting game community, though for what it tries to do, it's a fun game. Those who are just looking for something light and frothy will have a good time, but if you're looking for much complexity, this likely won't hold interest for terribly long. The stalwart online helps the game a great deal, but lack of moveset variety in the roster isn't particularly exciting. For sure, there's fun to be had with 'Nitroplus', it just requires that you play with other people, as the single player is far too limited for its own good.

Despite all the caveats, though, it's a game I ultimately had a lot of fun with. If you're looking for an entry point into the genre, this is a decent place to start.
