RetroGaming Shorts Part 050 - Riot

Riot 1992 (Arcade)

Riot is noteworthy for two things. First is its ridiculous stream-of-consciousness game design … there are magic terrorist ninjas, disparate creatures that make no sense together, different settings that have no rhyme or reason … it’s glorious.

Second is its twist on Cabal type gameplay - you are in the mid-ground, and enemies can come at you from both the background and the foreground. It’s honestly a fresh take, that puts you more inside the action.
