From its rich, detailed pixel art, to cheesy lines, from ironic commentary to flat out mayhem, Tower 57 comes off as an action-filled, top-down twin-stick shooter that’s a lot of fun to play through. Sure, certain checkpoints might lead to unneeded frustration, but that doesn’t overshadow the sheer joy of mowing down foes.

Even with the issues that arise from massive gaps between checkpoints and a few niggles here and there, Tower 57 is still a blast, accomplishing its goal of reminding us why these types of games from the Amiga era ended up being classics. The humor that comes from the oddities of the twisted world provides endless charm, the lush environments are eye-pleasing and the combat is fast-paced, challenging and just plain fun. It’s a terrific action game worth checking out for retro game enthusiasts (and everyone else, for that matter) and one you’ll be coming back to…even if it’s just because you stormed away for a moment after a mistimed rocket launcher blast killed you right before the boss and sent you back to square one.

If you are a fan of pixel art or Amiga-style twin-stick shooters, you will probably have a nice time with Tower 57, especially if you are playing with a friend."[/pullquote] Quite a few of the game's mechanics, like the limb losing mechanic, are made better in multiplayer.
