5Great Battle III is a side scrolling beat'em up platformer with characters from the Ultraman, Kamen Rider, and Gundam series. Play as one of four characters and collect gold as you defeat enemies to purchase items from shops in the game. I loved the cute chibi art style and variety of things to do in a stage. This is the third in the series and fixes some of the issues, however it introduces new ones that are at times worse. Respawning over something that immediately kills you is incredibly frustrating.
