DualShockersFeb 20269/10No matter how dense it all gets, there’s always a method to the madness, a consistent, player-friendly path forward that ensures you can keep making progress at a steady clip, even when the game gets notably difficult. Any complaints I could make are nitpicks at best; if you also love Suda’s works, you owe it to yourself to play this one, and if you’ve never played any of his games before, this is an excellent one to start with.

8Bit/DigiStan RezaeeFeb 202610/10There are games that are over the top outrages and then there are games that are balls to the wall outrageous. Romeo Is a Dead Man firmly falls into the latter and I love it for that.

Netto’s Game RoomBenjamin BellFeb 20265/5 starsROMEO IS A DEAD MAN is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. What initially feels like a standard, run-of-the-mill action game quickly evolves into a completely off-the-wall adventure that continues to surprise players from beginning to end. Even when the credits roll, you can't help but ask yourself what you just played—while knowing full well it was Suda51’s best action outing to date.

StevivorSteve WrightFeb 20264.5/10There's something admittedly unique about Romeo is a Dead Man, but that quirkiness doesn't make up for its middle of the road design. In fact, it's not long before quirky is just there for the sake of quirkiness, not serving anything larger.
