Gaijin Games' BIT.TRIP series has been one of the most consistent game series in terms of quality. All three previous titles in the franchise have been successful at presenting easy-to-learn/hard-to-master gameplay that pays tributes to gaming's past. The fourth game in the series, BIT.TRIP RUNNER, changes the formula once more, and while the gameplay is great, there are some notable issues keep it from being truly amazing.
With the inclusion of the original game and a set of new mechanics that slot in naturally, Bit.Trip Rerunner is a stellar example of a remake.
