The Tale of Cloud and Wind (QUByte Classics)

“Alas, Water Margin is an average game thrown into a bad wrapper, put out into the stores with little historical context or really any reason to know anything about it. Decent afternoon fun with a friend in local co-op, but not engaging for any other reason, since the repetitiveness will set in really, really fast if you play this by yourself.”

“Water Margin: The Tale of Clouds and Wind is not the first choice for those who want to play a classic of the genre, but the curious and nostalgic will get a good piece of history when they experience this picturesque beat 'em up. Just the history of its production from three decades ago to the current release is already a good reason to understand what game lovers can do when they want.”

“The Tale of Cloud and Wind (QUByte Classics) gives the hungry old-school beat'em ups just what they want. Three very different characters, seven phases of increasing difficulty, tons of enemies to face, and even a story based on classic oriental texts. The repetition of enemies and settings fails a bit, even in a genre that draws so much from it, but the whole is fun and stimulating enough to get into without consideration.”
