Rollergames is a unique rollerskate-based single-player brawler from Konami. It puts a strong emphasis on platforming and auto-scrolling stages. It has that classic Konami feel with catchy music and faceless, proportional characters as well as a fair yet steep difficulty curve.
Welcome to Rollergames everyone! We are faced with an enormous problem. 3 rough teams have kidnapped the owner. The 3 good teams can only rescue him.
Your skills decide if you win or fail.
Rollergames is based off of a live action TV show that featured real skaters which aired in the 80's. The teams featured in this game appeared in the show as well.
Allegedly, the character on the Rockers team is the descendant of Simon Belmont.

Rollergames is pure Konami. The challenging stage design demands memorization, its combat is super simple yet satisfying, and the graphics and sound are on point. Unfortunately, it puts a far greater emphasis on platforming than fighting. However, the bosses are really well done and exciting. The OST is funky-fresh.
