"When it comes to any game from Goichi Suda, better known as Suda51, it is best to expect the unexpected. While his repertoire may feature some straightforward titles or those that are part of a series, anything that he has had a hand in developing originally, especially with his team at Grasshopper Manufacture, have been rollercoasters of quality. That is far from a bad thing though as even some of his strangest titles have had their unique charm to them to draw fans in regardless of their flaws. So when it was revealed that Suda51 was bringing out a brand new IP, expectations were quite high. Now with the brand new Romeo is a Dead Man arriving worldwide, does it continue to carry on that uniqueness that Suda51 provides? "
Suda 51 is back, and crazier than ever. (In a good way.)

Dive into an ultra-violent sci‑fi third-person action adventure, then slow the pace with an action RPG that’s equally at home in a warm, cozy sim loop. Take a detour into darkly funny criminal commerce with a money-laundering sim where you literally wash cash, then brace for an FMV psychological-horror interactive movie steeped in centuries-old Black Forest tales of vengeful spirits. From there, plunge into a gripping first-person horror/action journey through a nightmarish reimagining of Spain, and finally reset your senses with a first-person puzzle experience built around painting, color-mixing, and seeing the world in a whole new light. Here’s what we’ve got for you this month (in no particular order):"
"ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN is messy, loud, violent, brutal and undeniably stylish - It doesn’t always stick the landing, and it certainly won’t be for everyone but it's 100% unashamed, unadulterated Suda."
