About

At its core, Umihara Kawase Bazooka!! is a fixed screen action game. Perform combos with the new “Bazooka” action and aim for the high score. With over 40 stages (planned), plenty of challenge awaits. Up to four players can play together in local cooperative or hindrance play. The game also offers a versus battle mode. Up to four players can play against each other, locally or online, and aim for victory in nonsensical battles. (Network support requires a subscription to the respective platform’s online service.) Original characters, as well as the forefront of Success Corporation and Studio Saizensen characters, will join the fray one after another!

Is Umihara Kawase BaZooKa! fun to play? Sure, a little. It's inoffensive, but it never grabbed us. Even though it's a short game, we never felt that burning desire to get to the end that is typically present in other titles. There are many characters, but none of them was really interesting. Cute, yeah. But not enough to mitigate the central problem that this isn't an interesting game. We're not sure why this is the direction the series has gone in, but could it go back to the lovingly-crafted, intricate rope courses, please? Far be it for us to call for a regression, but sometimes going back to the well is a good idea.
