The Real Review

Dead as Disco is a neon beat em up from Brain Jar Games where Charlie Disco fights the Idols and every punch, kick, and combo syncs to the music. The gameplay and visuals are the easy sell, with tight combat, a flashy look, and good value. Music is the big winner, especially the custom song stuff, and Charlie, Hemlock, and Dahlia get plenty of love. Some people hit performance issues and rough difficulty, and chatter about Brain Jar Games comes out mixed more often than not. Still, the game mostly lands.
