MONSTER
Civil unrest awaits as Tonight We Riot drops players into the boots of everyday working class rebels fighting against the oppression of global capitalism run amok in a dystopian future where the few wealthy elite dominate the entire civilized world. Between its solid gameplay, catchy synth music, retro feel, and challenging gameplay, it definitely looks like this is one mob more than ready to put up a spectacular fight. The chaotic mess of action ABSOLUTELY provides some nice catharsis. Tonight We Riot is the Socialist Revolution You're Looking For

This tension between Tonight We Riot’s political ambitions and the limited depth of its systems is a large part of why it feels paradoxically tame. It has taken the mechanics and structure of a traditional beat’em’up and attempted to map them to anti-capitalist revolution, but it hasn’t thoroughly interrogated how those existing mechanics are also a product of capitalism. How does a three-star scale reflect the strength of my revolution? Why are upgrades gated based on how many survive a given level? There are ways these could have been subverted to reflect an anti-capitalist intent but they have merely been transported into Tonight We Riot whole cloth.
