Twin-stick shooter is a genre that is not getting much love these days, but when one pops up it is usually a highly addicting experience. Iron Fisticle is no different, luring you in with its retro looks but keeping you hooked with the gameplay.

Fisticuffs

Iron Fisticle harkens back to the arcade days when quick reflexes and ever-growing difficulty was a standard.
Your goal is a simple as they get - kill all the enemies on the screen and move on to the next level. But, as with most games, if it sounds too easy it probably isn't.

There is no ultimate goal in the game except gaining the ever-elusive high score. Some might find this disappointing but look at, already trying to beat your previous score for the 15th time already. Yep, it is one of those "just one more try" games.

As simple as the game is, bringing to mind equally great Smash T.V., each playthrough is never the same, with the everchanging levels and power-ups that are randomly gained.

All of this will help you to level up. That's right, there are some RPG elements here as well!
Unlike classic arcade games that make you lose all the progress with the last life lost, in Iron Fisticle you get to keep your level, making next playthrough slightly easier, and every life lost doesn't feel as painful.

More than meets the eye

First impressions are very important, and Iron Fisticle gives a great one, but the longer you play you start getting a great second, third and fourth impressions.

Just when you think you got the hang of the game, new enemies start to appear, giant bosses try to hinder your progress, and more powerful weapons can be found. It keeps you on your toes and you never really know what to expect.

Of course, game such as this shines the brightest when other friends are involved, and luckily Iron Fisticle offers multiplayer as well.

While the game screams retro it is very much accessible to modern gamers as well. We highly implore you to try it, especially if you have a buddy by your side and you just can't decide what to play. Well, here is our suggestion.
