Controls now feel far more intuitive, with different buttons mapped to bring it into this decade of games. Whilst the core of the design has remained unchanged, the actual gameplay has had a complete overhaul. I was right though, the differences between the two are night and day. I had to check I didn’t gaslight myself into thinking Roombo wasn’t fun to play because Justice Sucks felt great. Dusty The Hostage SlayerĪfter finishing Justice Sucks, I redownloaded Roombo. Instead, the bulk of Samurai Punk’s efforts appear in the gameplay. It adds motive sure, but the story beats aren’t anything to anticipate. Other than a couple of nasal exhales at some moments, I found the story to be a passable attempt of fleshing out the game’s narrative. He instead lets crime reign so he can profit from sales on his security hardware – making Dusty a real problem. The Hans Gruber looking villain running Famil圜orp never fell off Nakatomi Tower. There’s no dialogue, but what’s in place is entertaining physical comedy. There’s a nicely animated 2D introduction like the first game, however, after that it’s just in-game cut scenes. The story is more involved in this sequel compared to Roombo. The pair are now out for vengeance to take down Famil圜orp and to save their family. Dusty gets flung into the living room TV ands winds up in the TV world where he befriends his fighting spirit, Sexy McClean. Famil圜orp’s Warranty Squad visit the unsuspecting Roomba and after a short battle the family are kidnapped. This antagonistic corporation want to keep crime rates high in the family home. As Dusty McClean successfully stopped a home invasion, it quickly caught the attention of Famil圜orp. Justice Sucks follows on immediately after the events of Roombo: First Blood. The McClean household just got an upgraded model in this top-down stealth action game.

Roombo: First Blood was a small Platinum-bait game but lightning doesn’t usually strike twice, right? Well I’m happy to report that Justice Sucks feels like the game that Samurai Punk wanted to make in the first place, and is a vast improvement on all fronts.

So, I was cautiously optimistic going into this.
