    4.0
    Unfortunately, the RetroRealms Arcade pricing structure gets even worse when taking the extra characters into account. I don't have specific pricing information, but bonus characters like Halloween heroine Laurie Strode cost extra. For $49.99, players should be entitled to everything that the Ash vs. Evil Dead and Halloween experiences have to offer, especially when one considers how short each game is. So, even though RetroRealms Arcade can be a fun action platformer at times and has amusing references for horror buffs, its pricing scheme makes it impossible to recommend.
