This can be spent on new outfits, artwork, sound samples, and a wardrobe of accessories. What's this? Apparently, this scenario gives our girls no option but to team up and engage in a series of two-on-two rumbles, with a very sandy end awaiting the losers. Let's get it out of way, SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy is one of the most simplistic fighting games I've played in years. Auto-combos are in full effect, with players tapping the attack buttons, then cancelling into special moves. More choice is offered in the game's selection of modes. Of the two titles, Blade Strangers is definitely the better game, but SNK Heroines is the more accessible, and will very likely go down better with non-fighting game players, though it really should be ten bucks cheaper. No victory.Because of this basic approach to combat, the key to SNK Heroines lies in movement. It might well be the start of the new king of fanservicey fighters, what with Dead or Alive 6's stated intention to ease back on that side of things.

The plot, which casts King of the Fighters 14 newcomer Kukri as – and I am not making this up – a perverted overlord of a dimension that pulls in a load of the female fighters from across SNK’s various games so he can turn them into sand statues for his – and again, I am not making this up – ‘fetishism explosion’. It's a fun idea, and some of the alternate costumes are truly great, but it isn't a patch on the customisation in fighters such as Tekken.
