In order to do this, you need to dive into Gilly’s game and cleanse it of the FFC’s presence. So, Gilly called in some family and the city’s local gangs to defend the arcade.Īs Plug, it’s up to you to help your uncle and prove your worth to these local gangs who are offering their help. The FFC being the bad guy and all, has caught wind of this and infiltrated the game in an effort to ruin it. In order to keep the FFC away from his arcade, Uncle Gilly has come up with a revolutionary new game in order to get new, loyal customers flocking to his arcade. Uncle Gilly’s arcade is the last of its kind, and the FFC is trying its hardest to take it from him. In Arcadegeddon, the world is ruled by mega-corporations, and (despite the name) the evil Fun FunCo is buying up everything and just plain ruining them.
ARCADEGEDDON RATING SERIES
Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series Calling All Gamers: Players can summon healing circles and more with these, so there are many ways to help the team or destroy opponents.We can all agree that Mega Corporations suck, right? Like, no one actually likes them or enjoys being a part of them unless you’re some rich, old white dude? Well, if you ever wanted to stick it to the men in charge while playing video games then, you should check out Arcadegeddon by Illfonic, the developer behind Friday The 13th: The Game and Predator: Hunting Grounds. These abilities have a pretty lengthy cooldown, so they have to be used with caution. Players spend tokens to unlock more abilities, but they start with just a fireball that they can launch. Players can find guns while running through Arcadegeddon, choose their starting loadout, and also unlock active abilities by gaining XP. So you don’t have to play with just the bat and pistol forever. There are so many weapons, and each has its own skins to unlock and customize them.

Speaking of guns, there are so many awesome ones in this game! High-precision bubble guns, healing guns, shotguns, rocket launchers, ice guns, you name it. Finding and opening the various treasure chests gives several guns, hacks, and coins for players to split.Īrcadegeddon has plenty of collectibles, including guns, skins, and abilities One benefit to this, though, is that players can quickly learn where the treasure chests will spawn. There aren’t tons of possibilities when it comes to map sections, but that can be improved by the developers. Players have the choice to move on with the normal objective or go blow up the boss portal. After a certain amount of progress is made, an on-screen meter will fill up, and the optional boss portal will spawn. There are optional boss battles that come through, and that’s where the real challenge is.

There aren’t a ton of objectives, but with the varying stages and layouts, it sort of balances out. It may involve surviving, standing at a point and defending it, or destroying a series of floating objects.

Players are dropped into a stage, and after a bit of a run, they receive a win condition.

The cost of these will vary with difficulty level, so stack as many coins as possible. At the end of a stage, players have a chance to buy new guns, hacks (passive effects), or refill their ammo. There are plenty of boxes to break for coins as well as ammunition. I would then drop the fancy guns, so I could resume fighting my opponents. I had plenty of moments where all three of my guns had no ammo, and ammo drops were nowhere to be found.
