A third-person action game from Grasshopper Manufacture - the creators of Shadows of the Damned, Lollipop Chainsaw and No More Heroes series. In Romeo is a Dead Man we play as the titular agent, hunting fugitives through time and space. The game is heavy on fast and very bloody combat.
Romeo is a Dead Man is a brutal action game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture studio. We're talking about a Japanese development team, with projects in their portfolio such as the No More Heroes series, Lollipop Chainsaw, and Shadows of the Damned.
The main character of Romeo is a Dead Man is the titular Romeo Stargazer. Five seconds before leaving this vale of tears, the protagonist is saved and trapped between life and death. From now on he as a special agent for the FBI dedicated to matters of time and space. He must engage in hunting the most wanted fugitives, whom he pursues through various universes. Somewhat incidentally, the protagonist tries to find out what happened to his suddenly missing girlfriend - Julia.
In Romeo is a Dead Man the action is viewed from a third-person perspective (TPP). We explore various locations related to the fugitives and engage in combat with opponents.
The clashes are dynamic, and during them we make use of melee weapons (led by swords) or firearms (such as rifles and shotguns). We can also beat the enemies with our fists. On our way, we encounter both ordinary opponents, which we eliminate in large groups, and bosses who are significantly more powerful than them.
A distinctive feature of this game is a high degree of brutality. Blood flows here exceptionally thick, and severed limbs fly through the air. All of this was presented in a grotesque way.

GamesCreed: 4.5 / 5 by Maisie Scott
ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN works because it is daring, not because it is perfect. This action game is still quite intriguing, even though it has several problems. It’s driven by style, heart, and a clear mission that makes chaos seem weirdly significant.
TheSixthAxis: 7 / 10 by Gareth Chadwick
Romeo is a Dead Man is exactly what you're expecting it to be if you're familiar with Suda51, which means you are expecting the unexpected. It's as weird as possible from the very beginning and features a collection of influences that combine into a unique and surreal journey. Actually fighting stuff is the least interesting part of the game, which is good because I find the combat a bit weak, but if you can see through that – and maybe start of the lower difficulty so it's less of an burden – this is a rollercoaster of the peculiar that you'll want to stick with to the end.
Games Freezer: 7 / 10 by David James
Nobody out there is doing it quite like SUDA 51, and with a game industry coalescing into a bland soup of dull titles aimed at everyone that please nobody. I’m just glad he’s still out there doing his thing, and that someone is giving him the money to do so. As far as I’m concerned, playing Romeo is a Dead Man makes you cool. It’s nowhere near perfect, but it’s unlike pretty much anything else out there. And you want to be cool, right? Right? Yeah, you do.
