Renegade Game

**"Renegade" on the SEGA Master System is a punchy, no-nonsense brawler that throws you straight into the gritty streets of 1980s arcade action. Imagine stepping into the scuffed boots of a street fighter taking on waves of thugs, from back-alley punks to leather-clad bosses, all while mastering slick moves like throws, jumps, and haymaker punches. It’s Double Dragon’s rougher, edgier cousin—raw, fast-paced, and packed with that satisfyingly simple beat-’em-up chaos that made arcades addictive.

What makes Renegade stand out? It was one of the pioneers of the side-scrolling brawler genre, bringing arcade flair to your living room with the Master System’s crisp (for its time) visuals and tight controls. Sure, it’s tough as nails—expect to lose a few quarters’ worth of patience—but there’s something undeniably cool about its bare-knuckle attitude. If you love retro games that don’t pull punches (literally), this one’s a knockout."
