About Roar of City

Roar of City is a 2D isometric Beat 'em up game with high quality graphic and suitable gameplay for mobile and desktop. Fight with criminals gang and arrest their commander to rescue the city. But now the city is angry and the horrible roar of the city can be heard.

How to play Roar of City

There is very little to learn before your first run. It is a mouse-only game, so there is nothing to memorise on the keyboard — which is also why it feels native on a touchscreen. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. Nothing is lost by trying something reckless once.

Why it is worth playing

Plenty of arcade games want a tutorial and ten minutes of setup before anything happens. Roar of City does not — it is playable from the first second. That is the whole pitch, and it is enough.
