Rock Boshers DX: Director's Cut

Jan 7, 2015

Whether you grew up with a ZX Spectrum or, like me, you’ve never seen one I think there’s a lot of great stuff here. It might be difficult for some to get used to the graphics at first, but when you do you’ll find a really fun game with some excellent music. It’s also just super cool to see a game that sticks so faithfully to something like the ZX Spectrum. A copy of this game was provided by the publisher for review purposes.

At this stage, Nintendo Switch has plenty of retro-inspired titles to its name – the eShop is practically brimming with them – but despite such considerable company, Rock Boshers DX: Director’s Cut saunters in with gameplay that confidently straddles the old gaming world and the new. Fans of the ZX Spectrum days will lap up Tikipod’s faithful recreation of the 8-bit era, and with a ton of levels and modes to unlock there’s plenty of replay value to be had with Queen Victoria and her Martian odyssey.

Rock Boshers DX throws its hat into the already crowded twin-stick shooter ring, but it does a nice job of presenting something different. Instead of relying on fast-paced bullet hell antics, it presents a more methodical and thoughtful approach to level and enemy design. This does become frustrating, however, as some stages can have difficulty spikes towards the end, making it a chore to go through the motions just to get back to where you were. Fortunately, this isn’t the norm and more often than not I found the clever level design to be a true treat.

While the game treads fairly common ground, the true retro call backs, satisfying difficulty, arcade minigames, and audio comfortably set it above the sediment of what's average.
