All things considered, this is a rare moment where an indie game blows away fans of the 2.5D retro shooter genre. Thanks to its twisted story, intense and violent action in an anime-style 'erotic-gore' aesthetic, and excellent weapon and acrobatic combos, you're getting a short but highly entertaining game that genre fans will definitely appreciate.

A tactical FPS which remains steadfast in its violent depictions, the potential cruelty of which can be a legitimate detriment to anyone simply looking to imbibe in its mechanical intricacies.

Beyond Citadel perfectly captures the classic shooter experience with this love letter to post-apocalyptic anime’s from the 90s
