What Makes Rowdy City Wrestling Stand Out
Every wrestling career has to start somewhere. For you it's the mean streets of Rowdy City. Rowdy City's Wrestling gym is a place where dreams can be made or crushed. You will meet a variety of characters throughout your career, some who want to help you and others who maybe have other plans for you.
In career mode you will start as a nobody and fight your way towards the RCW World Championships. It's not going to be an easy journey, you will fight in 1 vs 1 matches, six person brawls and royal rumble events. The aim of the game is to earn cash to improve your stats so you can take on the guys at the top. If you need a bit of extra cash you can pick up a part time job lugging boxes around, or take the more dangerous route and do some street fights.
There are a variety of characters to unlock and an endless mode that lets you jump straight into a royal rumble mode.
This Sports game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Ok this is a amazing game but if you move to the left to much the character disappears and the thing is you never lose the match you have to start over and the ai just keep on running over there and if you had any of the shakes you lose the shake and you dont even get your money back especially when you have a weak character lets say you have Joe average and your going up against Jupiter and you spent all your money on shakes and now you have 60$ left and you go in and say alright we can do this then Jupiter just runs to the left and disappears and then you just say fine Ill just restart the game then you lose all your shakes and your money and then you try to build up your money again and the so just keep doing the same thing over and over again but other than that its fun the way to get character is good because you actually have to work for them and for each character you have it does special events specially catered to that person and one last thing can you fix the bug on the advertisement man.
There is a glitch in the career when you go on the left side outside the ring. We love this game and think its great, but this glitch makes it unplayable. If you fix this glitch this will be one of our favorite games. PLEASE FIX IT.
We absolutely love the game we used to play it on another device and recently got it on our phone and its just as good. Only one issue the game is bugging us out. Going to far to the left or right of the fighting area will automatically make you lose. Causing you to have to exist the game to restart. As well as for some reason forcing you to auto run once you leave the fighting area. Making it confusing and annoying to fix. Still love the game and despite its flaws still continue to play it.
If you like challenges this is the game for you!! Every person we introduced the game to was like a pro gamer and got completely crushed the first round!!! We make it sound really hard but Im truth the game isnt that bad once you get the ropes of the controls we used to code just for fun it would take us hours to code a simple stupid effect, as a result we know this mustve taken months to complete thank you so much for this.
This is a really great game that we come back to every once and a while to play cause we enjoy it so much but recently we discovered that when playing through the solo career mode sometimes ourselves or the ai will go out the left side of the ring and fight on the left side and one of us will just disappear from the match completely leaving it stuck and unable to finish which isnt always an issue if we dont go to that side but im currently stuck on the dead man as he seems to go for the chair on the left every time and disappears every time leaving us unable to finish our gameplay! We love this game but we cannot play this match without him or we going missing from the game.
Ive read many review on this saying how national and world championship story mode characters are impossible, but if these people have actually tried to NOT button mash and actually think, they might find it easier to win (all characters have up to 5 breaks at the start of a match, including you). By the way, you could try jumping away dropkicks, which you can escape enemies because of your recoil on impact. Dropkicks from a better high drains more stamina, and so when the enemies are too slow, use the ropes to dropkicks them. Even if they are below you, jump forward the, move behind to do an extra sneaky kick that they dont know how to do. Or, use a glitch where the ai goes to top rope and kick them in the nuts (very funny) for an instant KO. Plus, there are shakes(You have them from the start of the game) that you can buy for a 1 fight boost, making that fight infinitely easier. We dont recommend using shakes until late game, as yes, the characters have an unobtainable amount of stamina and hp, except that they have an amount that you can get with a shake. ANYWAYS, no more ranting about how entirely possible it is to beat the game with anyone, as we have done it with JOE AVERAGE aka Jim average + too much injury. This game has been a ton of fun for us and Ive played for hours. It makes since that your character has to start with incredibly weak stats and use skill to beat everyone and become stronger. You dont have to just win matches, but also get optional jobs to get more money. We love the storyline of each championship(no spoilers) in which there is something different the main antagonist of the championship has against you each time. The game also offerers some subtle tips with side characters in case you didnt know it existed. Even if you lose matches and dont rank up every season (unlike us the flawless victory guy), its ok for you to restart the season in order to get better stats and beat it. Just one thing devs, there is a bug in which characters, including ours will just glitch out of the game ON THE LEFT WALL and disappear forever (we think it has something to do with characters with a chair that come in and out of a match). We have to close the game every time this happens in a single match, although we have used this on several occasions to make our brawls and rumbles a bit easier. Thats all we have to say(which is quite a lot). Hope you can keep this game updated with some extra content or characters.
We love rowdy rowdy wrestling because Im not allowed to play a lot of games. Im only able to play old school and this is a bit and it has old wrestling stuff that us and our dad love its amazing gameplay, but theres a lot of glitches like one of them is that we cant likeeven fight that well without easily getting eliminated and have to restart the game if we go left so thats a really bad glitch that we dont like and also we tried going to promote to the national championship or the third championship and we were about to, but it didnt let us because the code says when you actually do it like when you press next fight it registers that youre gonna do a fight but thats bad because its trying to promote you so before promotes you it fight, but the thing is in the code. It doesnt tell you who youre facing and who you are so it doesnt let us continue. We asked AI and it didnt work so we really like rowdy rowdy wrestling, but the glitches are pretty bad update we checked other reviews and we noticed there are two glitches the one we said about promoting and left side glitches rowdy city wrestling workers please do these two glitches. Its OK if you dont because its really good but we really want to continue doing our game because Im stuck. Also we think thats how everybody else feels but great game. Love the base we know how hard it is so we really like how good you made it especially doing it on games because its really hard because we know how hard it is to do stuff because Im a music.
Great game but the bugs are really annoying. After we beat Jupiter in an unofficial match we had to restart the game cause we could go anywhere. If we went too far to the left it would disappear and lose. The difficulty compared to the first game and graphics are a nice change though.
Good game but theres a glitch where if we go to the left end of a fighting area we disappear even if its a rumble it makes the game unplayable so pls fix it.
Great game but if we go to the left side we or the ai will disappear making it where you have to restart the game.
Like the game but there is a weird bug on the left side of the ring during solo mode where the either the opponent or us disappears when one of use goes over there other then that strange and annoying bug its a pretty good game.
When is am winning in the game the people we are fighting walk to the glitch and have to restart, and it happens when we walk to the left to,but other than that very good game but please fix it.
We are a huge fan of the original rowdy wrestling and we were exited when we saw this game because it looked cooler. We were right and it is a lot of fun and it would be 5 stars if it didnt have a bug. If you go to the end of the ring in a rumble on the left then you disappear and you have to reset the rumble. This only happened in career mode but it can be annoying when we are about to win but then we have to restart.
We love this game because of its simple and easy to learn mechanics, but there is this glitch where if you to to the far left, sometimes you will just disappear. You dont even get beat, youre just stuck until you restart the game ): . If you could fix that we would deeply appreciate it. Thank You.
The left wall is glitched, when you go into it your person disappears and your health at and stuff too. Same with the opponent, they just disappear and stuff.
Its a great game and all, but when we're fighting and go out of the mat area to the left the people that Im fighting always disappear from the screen and the fight keeps going although there is no one to fight. Sometimes we even disappear.
Everytime we walk to the left side of the stadium it completely soft locks the game and makes our character disappear. Please fix we want to play this amazing game again.
This game is super awesome, but it is sometimes very glitchy during matches! The glitches have sold us so many losses.
So we got it and we were so excited to play its really fun just needs more features like maybe an online feature also needs more wrestlers its fun. But we would be a better game if it had multi player matches, rumbles, and it would be cool if you could make and customize your own characters and level them up.
This game is fun but its way better on a computer because it wont do all the weird glitches where the wrestlers disappear when they run to the left.
Something annoying about this game is that if your oppenent goes too far to the left then they disappear. Its so annoying and forces us to restart the game multiple times. And right before writing this review we saw another person complaining about the glitch and they STILL HADNT FIXED IT! The ai and gameplay is still better then the first though. (Update: we also noticed MANY other people complaining about the glitch then just one).
When we go to the left side of the map our character dissapears and we instantly lose the fight.
The game would be better if you fix the left side glitch because every time we move or punch the left wall (the ropes to) we vanish.
There is a glitch on the left side of the ring on the outside wall where if you walk into it it just freezes and then we have to restart the match. We dont know if its just us or if anyone else has this problem but please look at it.
There are 2 terrible glitches that must be fixed. One is where on the left side of the ring any character will just dissapear and glitch out forces us to restart the game which is really annoying. The other glitch is where you constantly go to the left and cant fix it making you also have to restart the game. Both of these glitches are annoying but the game itself is pretty good.
Ok tell us how Im in a fight and we walk outside of the ring and we disappear?? How.
What happened with this game? It was great and it still is, but theres these weird bugs where if you go to the left of the ring, you disappear. In the rumble, if you get on the left turnbuckle, you disappear. What is the deal? Please fix! Ill give you 10 stars.
We love this game we play it all the time but for some reason when we go to the right or left of the round where the wall is it just makes the other person win immediately. We dont know if this is a glitch. We dont know if this is on purpose, but when we run into it. It just takes us back to the main menu please fix this. We love your game, but youre ruining it.
Like its super good top 10 games Ive played but what we hate is whenever you or and npc touches the left side it kicks them out otherwise it would be five star.
This is a great game and Ive been playing a lot recently. However, whenever we run into a wall, whether Im thrown or miss a kick etc, it makes our character disappear, same with other character, and we have to go to the home screen and then go back to the match. This is annoying and happens too often. Please try to fix this glitch because as someone who used the kick a lot, it makes the game nearly unplayable.
Ok so the game is fun and all but when ever us or our opponent walks out the left side of the ring they disappear but it doesnt end the match if you can fix that we would appreciate it.
EVERYTIME we FIGHT MEGA BEAST AND START TO WIN HE RUNS OUT OF THE RING AND INTO THE LEFT WALL, WHICH GLITCHES THE GAME HE DISAPPEARS AND YOU CANT WIN OR PLAY OR DO ANYTHING.
So the fights are fun but every time we touch one side of the arena or the enemy does us or the enemy disappears and we have to restart the game.
The game is a buggy mess. All of our progress has been deleted and our character randomly vanished during matches. On top of that we get an infinite walking glitch that prevents us from doing anything but walk forwards. Overall if these bugs were patched the game would be much better than it is now.
So first the game wouldnt let us play because it would kick us out when we tried to play it but now it lets us play it but when our character or our opponent goes to the corner he disappears and then we have to do the match again.
We love this game in our opinion its one of the best wrestling games out there but Thers one bug you guys or girls need to fix whenever us or a npc walks over to the right side off the mat next to the wall we just despawn.
Loved the first two we wish they stuck to the mechanics and style of the first one and built on that more. Its also super buggy cant even jump near the side of the ring without it instantly ending our game, and saying we lost we like the idea of expanding on the career mode, etc but the old one just played way better overall a downgrade go back to the roots of these games.
If you go far left or far right it bugs you out forcing you to exit the game, please fix.
Is there a way to get our progress and u locked characters back after we delete the game for a bit.
Good game, but there is a big where going to far despawns the sprites and we have to go back. Fix the game.
Stupid left corner keeps making everyone disappear.
This game is actually really fun but it cant get any higher of a score due to several game breaking bugs. Such as your character disappearing if you go to far left on the screen leaving you unable to do anything unless you leave the game. If your opponent does it too it also locks the game from progressing. We really wish these guys were fixed because its a fun game.
Every time someone goes to the left side of the ring they disappear.
This game is very fun and we feel like we could keep playing for hours, but we keep having to exit out of the app and enter again to fix the bugs. The whole game freezes and doesnt come back, and the opponents just flat out disappear sometimes. Another thing is that if you are playing in the brawl mode, itll just kick you out and make you spectate. Please fix this game it could be so much more fun.
Who thought it was a good idea to give dead man unlimited break points. Its impossible to beat dead man cause all he does is escape your grabs because he has unlimited break points.
We spent a lot of time on this game. A LOT. It was super fun, mostly. There were, however, camera glitches and crashes fairly often. The biggest one of all is what compelled us to write this review. After about a year of continual playing, the game reset. We lost every single character (we had all unlocked) and every championship we won with them. Extremely disappointing.
We love this game and its amazing but on our iPhone 12 which it says its compatible on it will kick us out as soon as we click the button but its ok to play on our computer why cant we play it on our iPhone.
This game is amazing. The fighting is perfect, the is good difficulty and if you find it to easy or to hard you can adjust your play style like using a better or worse player. The jobs are a pretty good way to make quick cash. The clown Easter egg on the first play through was cool and not having it for every play through was balanced. Its just an all around good game. Keep up the good work.
The game is awesome when it worked for us but all the sudden we could never get passed the main menu.
This game is amazing. Not much more to say but please add a Brock lesnar character.
