Ultra Space Battle Brawl is just as tense, in the Tetris sense. And it’s impossible to play that game without at least a little panic. Yes, this all seems pretty simple, but the same thing can be said for Tetris. Each comes with their very own special move that provides a fair amount of variety when it comes to building different strategies. Among the teens you can play as are the purple pompadour muscle chubster Djwarwani and manic aspiring cook Tumini. Don’t look for the princess and jock archetypes here. Ultra Space Battle Brawl lets you play as ten different teenagers who would make The Breakfast Club look well adjusted. They disappear after a few hits of the brawl ball, so don’t count on them to be anything but canon fodder. Luckily, each of you have weird little blob minions that work as makeshift goalies. At the same time, you must defend against your opponent doing the same. And like that classic 2D fighter, the main story campaign is arranged like any great tournament mode.Įach level, you must slap a ball towards your opponent’s side of the field, knocking it into a yellow crystal. While this isn’t a fighting game, everything from the story (intergalactic tourney to determine the fate of the player you choose) to the character select screen reeks of Street Fighter II. But perhaps I can flesh out a little more perspective. This Switch indie title sells itself as a couch party game that “combines Pong, fighting game, and the spirit of having fun together in an 80s over-the-top aesthetic infused steroid.” I could end the review here, because I don’t disagree with this over-written tagline one bit. But on occasion, a title like Ultra Space Battle Brawl provides exactly what it says it will. Truth in advertising is rare as far as games are concerned.
