WrestleQuest

"Overall, I have really enjoyed my experience with WrestleQuest. There are a lot of great influences that this game takes from that work well and blend smoothly together. The gameplay is fun, the art style is adorable, and there’s a …"

"Putting wrestling and turn-based RPGs in a can they co-exist tag team style was an excitingly bold move that unfortunately ends in a heel turn and a crowd leaving early to beat the traffic."

"Forget your 2Ks and your Fight Forevers, if you want to experience fun and surprisingly authentic pro-wrestling action in 2023 then WrestleQuest is by far your best bet. Wax your back, coat yourself in baby oil, and prepare your promo, …"

"It is possible to imagine a hybrid of ‘90s JRPG and ‘80s wrestling that could be genuinely engaging, if only for a modest audience. WrestleQuest, however, is not that game. Behind the kayfabe, its obsessive adherence to dated tropes and …"

"WrestleQuest is a love letter to professional wrestling and everything it represents, from the smallest details to the biggest. The respect for the greats of the past and what they mean to the present and future is evident, and the …"

"There&s;s charm and appeal to be found in WrestleQuest, but this old school RPG doesn&s;t have enough to stay in the main event."

"One Hell of a Slobberknocker"

"WrestleQuest is a fantastic wrestling RPG adventure with fun and satisfying exploration, combat, and character development. The game does have a few wrinkles to iron out, however, whether you&s;re a life-long wrestling fan or just a casual fan like me, …"

"WrestleQuest is a charming, cute and heartfelt game that is laser-targeted at a very specific group. It&s;s not even so much wrestling fans as those who grew up playing with wrestling toys in some fashion. That isn&s;t to say it&s;s …"

"WrestleQuest is a surprising blend of WWE-style wrestling and a JRPG, making for an impressively charming game."

"WrestleQuest is a delightful game that captures the essence of wrestling in RPG form."

"Wrestlequest has some fantastic combat mechanics and a ton of nods to the world of wrestling but gets weighed down by its own substance far too often."

"WrestleQuest takes everything that’s great about both turn-based RPGs and the fabled art of wrestling to create one of the most compelling, memorable adventures the gaming medium has to offer -- flush with endearing characters, deep gameplay, and fun surprises …"

"WrestleQuest has just enough charm and personality to make up for its more distracting problems. The constant references to the world of wrestling and fun appearances by legends make the stories of Muchacho Man and Brink worth following, but the …"

"In the end, I believe the balance is positive, especially due to the characters&s; charisma and the diverse customization elements for the combat. If there&s;s an update fixing the issues, it&s;s a definite recommendation."

"WrestleQuest’s love for wrestling catapults its creative and beautiful landscapes and strong characters into the main event, but isn’t enough to elevate its bloated level design or competent-but-repetitive combat out of the mid card."

"WrestleQuest has all the right tools to pique a pro-wrestling fan&s;s interest, but it fails to deliver when it matters."

"WrestleQuest might just be this years’ best wrestling game, certainly it’s most unexpected. With a cast of who’s-who legends, some interesting twists and turns and a sense of humour fans will love, Mega Cat have built something quite brilliant. The …"

"The love and passion gone into the creation of WrestleQuest is clear, however, certain design decisions and a repetitive combat system make this a stumble down memory lane. Although the story is full of intrigue and famous wrestlers form part …"

"WrestleQuest does an excellent job at combining pro wrestling legends with a turn-based combat system that takes the best kind of cues from Nintendo&s;s more-interactive Mario RPGs over the years."

"Wrestlequest has a cool idea on paper, but the battle system is clunky at best. That mixed with unlikable characters, and legends that deserve a better video game, make WrestleQuest very hard to care about at all. Like a certain …"

"WrestleQuest does a good job of taking something that you wouldn&s;t think would fit as an RPG game and makes it work. The world is amazing, the characters, and cameos are really going to invoke the golden era of Professional …"

"WrestleQuest is a fantastic concept for a video game, but slow pacing, annoying voice lines and a ridiculous amount of QTEs spoil it entirely."

"The game has cool ideas; it just needs more refinement and a serious reexamination of certain systems before it’s ready for the big time"

"A nostalgic pixilated RPG set in a world of retro toys, where wrestling is king. DualShockers was provided with a copy of the game for review purposes."

"A passionate love letter to traditional RPGs, pro wrestling, and upturned toy boxes."

"With intuitive combat, a mostly endearing story, and enough Easter eggs to fill the Gobbledy Gooker&s;s nest, WrestleQuest is a must-play for fans of this great pseudo-sport. For everyone else, think of this RPG as a fine form of entertainment, …"

"WrestleQuest delivered exactly what I was hoping for: a charming adventure mixing the best parts of wrestling with classic RPG exploration and combat."

"WrestleQuest is an easy recommendation to any professional wrestling fan, or RPG fan, and may be the champion of bridges between the two."

"WrestleQuest takes the classic idea of a video game based on pro-wrestling and flips it on its head, giving us an RPG instead of the typical fighting game. It also has tons of fan service for those who might be …"

"WrestleQuest is a fun homage to one of the most important eras of wrestling. It&s;s wrapped in a narrative and combat with good ideas and fun execution, yet fails to reach a higher level thanks to some frustrating design choices …"

"WrestleQuest is a surprisingly wholesome game that is laser-focused on appealing to a specific demographic and will likely fail to capture the attention of anyone else. If you grew up watching the likes of Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan, and Ric …"

"Wrestlequest is a lot of fun, and there is clearly a strong nostalgia for wrestling here, as well as the old-school style of roleplaying games. This is both a blessing and a curse. Wrestlequest does its best to keep the …"

"WrestleQuest oozes with charm, easter eggs, and sweet chin music thanks to how well it blends traditional RPG elements with a clear love of classic wrestling. It&s;s easy to look past some of its design quirks because of how well …"
