Playable and tough enough for normal gamers, but experts always want more of a challenge and Japanese games dev Cave specialised in giving them just that. Those games, while suitably challenging in their day, are like the early levels on Trials HD.

Although the Donpachi series dates back to 1995 (with this, the fifth game in the series, hitting the arcades in 2008) even then things had progressed remarkably from the early days when such sedate titles as 1942 and Xevious ruled the genre. Anyone wanting to know about every nuance of the game should probably check out a specialist site but if you’re like me, a half-decent gamer who plays too much shit to specialise in one game, or even genre, for too long, you’re in the right place.ĭodonpachi Resurrection Deluxe Edition is, as previously mentioned, a vertically scrolling shoot ’em up. You just want to know what this game is about and whether or not it’s worth buying. Well, I’m not an expert and you’re not an expert.
