Rocket Riot Reviews

Professional reviews from gaming critics

Rocket Riot is simple arcade fun candy coated with brilliant pixel art. The destructible environments allow for some highly enjoyable chaos in both single- and multiplayer modes. Dual-stick shooters have risen in popularity in recent years, and this one has enough personality and charm to set it apart from the pack.

Rocket Riot is an action-packed side-view shooter featuring a bazooka-wielding jetpack soldier. With a highly stylized 8-bit era feel, players blast their way through the environment against enemies or multiplayer foes online.

At its core, Rocket Riot is a standard, though well made, twin-stick shooter. There is a lot of content in the form of levels, characters, and challenges, but it’s still not enough to keep the game interesting for long periods of time. If you’re looking for a game to pick-up and play casually and get a laugh, then buy Rocket Riot. If you’re looking for any sort of depth or challenge, then look elsewhere. And if you’re looking for a banana joke to end the review, then here it is. What do you call two banana skins?
