About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a nostalgic trip back to the 80s with Streets of Revenge! This microgame is pure adrenaline, inspired by the classic beat 'em up arcade games that defined an era. Forget complicated rules and lengthy setups; the action here is immediate! With a handful of cards and dice, you'll dive into intense street fights, choosing your hero and mastering their moves to face waves of thugs. The objective is clear: clear the streets and defeat the dreaded Final Boss.

The cool part is that the dice themselves represent both your fighter and the enemies, with their scores indicating health points. Each enemy has its own color and special abilities, and your hero also has unique skills and upgrades that you'll acquire along the way. Keep an eye out for reward crates to grab weapons, health items, and credits, and don't forget to use explosive barrels to your advantage for extra damage! Each stage presents a new challenge with bosses who have their own distinct rewards and attacks. Streets of Revenge is a quick and addictive dose of strategy and luck, perfect for anyone who loves the vibe of retro video games and wants to relive the glory days of arcades.
