"Guacamelee! is a Metroid-vania style action-platformer set in a magical Mexican inspired world. The game draws its inspiration from traditional Mexican culture and folklore, and features many interesting and unique characters. Guacamelee! builds upon the classic open-world Metroid-vania style of games, by adding a strong melee combat component, a new dimension switching mechanic, and cooperative same-screen multiplayer for the entire story. The game also blurs the boundaries between combat and platforming by making many of the moves useful and necessary for both of these. Travel through a mystical and mysterious Mexican world as a Luchador using the power of your two fists to battle evil. Uncover hidden wrestling techniques like the Rooster Uppercut, and Dimension Swap to open new areas and secrets." Guacamelee! Gold Edition is a port of the PlayStation 3 and Vita version of the game and includes the DLC that was released for the game. An updated version of the game called "Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition" was later released that includes an expanded story, 2 new areas, and a new boss. Read less

It's creative and looks really nice. Love the humorous side of the game as well. There is a lot of good stuff in this short game and an ok story, but not this is the best metroidvania like sidescroller if you like/want to try the genre. Lot of options and cool stuff to fight and platforming, but sometimes it's really over saturated and punishing.

I enjoyed all that 7 hours to beat it, but there is a technical issue when you enter a new area the game freezes out. (this is a bit annoying and you cannot do anything with it)

If you want a decent game for a decent price you can pick it and buy it, but there are better games in the genre.
