Black Widow: Recharged really surprised me. I downloaded the game thinking I'd only play it for around 30 minutes just to see what's it about, but I ended up logging over 8 hours... It's highly addictive and intense, and the gameplay precisely captures the retro vibes of arcade games in the past. For those who don't know, Black Widow: Recharged is a legacy remake of the original Black Widow game that came out over 40 years ago as a twin-stick shooter released in arcades back in the day. It's a straightforward multidirectional shooter, so don't expect too much, but it's a lot of fun!

Es gibt um Welten bessere Twinstickshooter.
Wer keine nostalgische Verbindung zu dem Spiel hat, braucht es nicht spielen.
