The verdict
A well-emulated pack of classic Capcom arcade games with rewind and save states, but the base app only gives one free game and has launch bugs. Skip it if you want free content.
Great for
Retro Capcom fans who want legal arcade classics with rewind and save states, bought on sale or in a bundle
Main risk
Only one free game, the rest is pricey DLC, and it may crash or refuse to launch on your PC
What players love
