Bounty Battle is a game where literally nothing about it is redeemable except the cast I don’t even know where to begin with this literally everything about it is terrible except the cast of characters, which don’t do the game justice at all it feels like a cheap mobile game but that won’t be doing it justice either since I have played many mobile games better than this and they actually had some fun factor sadly I cannot say the same about Bounty Battle. Let me start with the gameplay. First, you always win even if you spam. Now there’s a cool down if you spam, but it doesn’t matter because the AI is terrible. This isn’t the indie version of Super Smash Bros because if there were an indie version of it, it would actually have some redeemable quality. I have played Brawlhalla, which is a way better Smash Bros-like game than this, and it was free. I would definitely recommend you to skip this. It has no fun factor at all, even in local couch co-op.
Let me breakdown Bounty Battle apart first you have an amazing cast of characters then you have a terrible combat system and gameplay also the UI feels straight up clunky another thing which is very disappointing is that there’s no multiplayer it’s very essential in brawlers and games like this in my opinion but it wouldn’t have done this any justice at all so there’s that because the gameplay is a major let down they overused particles you can’t see anything properly and there’s a slow motion effect which slows everything down when you attack someone or someone attacks another enemy which completely ruins the immersion then you have the low resolution textures I have seen flash games with a better art style and textures than Bounty Battle also playing with different characters feels the same for example I played as the character from dead cells first then I played as the character from Guacamelee both literally felt the same also I encountered so many bugs the game would just crash every 30 minutes it’s like my console was telling me to stop playing this terrible game my character just started floating in the air because of a bug and sometimes the enemies don’t do anything at all that’s how terrible the AI is in Bounty Battle I feel like I have explained everything about this game it’s just a completely irredemable game I regret even trying it I was actually very hyped to play it because of the cast at first you have characters like Guacamelee!, Darkest Dungeon, Dead Cells, Awesomenauts, Nuclear Throne, Owlboy, Axiom Verge, SteamWorld Dig, Oddmar, Jotun, Battle Chasers Nightwar, Death’s Gambit, EITR, Super Comboman, Pankapu, Flinthook, Doko Roko, Tower of Samsara, Blubber Busters, Ruin of the Reckless, The Bug Butcher, and Blocks that Matter. And how do you ruin that? By making everything else absolutely trash, I hope developers Dark Screen Gaming learn from their failure, and I wish them good luck on their next project.
Verdict:
I would definitely not suggest you buy Bounty Battle even if you really want it. That’s how bad it is. As I have mentioned previously, it has nothing redeemable it’s a game where everything about it is mediocre except the cast of characters, which doesn’t matter at all because of the terrible execution of this game. This is definitely one of the worst games I have ever played in my life.
Pros:
Surprise, there are no Pros except the cast.
Cons:
- Terrible AI
- Bugs which crash the game every 30 minutes
- Clunky main menu and UI
- Low-Resolution Textures
