This is a great idea and a unique take on the wrestling genre, but unfortunately there's not much here. There's a handful of moves, which would make sense for the time period but there still could have been a variety of strikes, submissions and suplexes. The moves that are in the game look unfinished. The training doesn't give you enough time to even understand the grapple timing. I was stuck in a corner and could only hit strikes on my opponent until he fell down. I pinned him and won the match but he still had a good chunk of health left. People are desperate for new wrestling games. At this stage, the game feels less than titles on the NES. Pro Wrestling, Tecmo World Wrestling And Toukon Club are more enjoyable in a few short minutes than what is featured here. If the developer wants to continue this series than I hope they look to those games as inspiration. As well as other titles such as the underrated All Japan series on the Super Famicom.
I love the concept of the game but... Why are the grapples so hard to time? Dammit.

With it's sepia tones, roaring '20's soundtrack and overall atmosphere from a bygone era of Wrestling before the time of Sports Entertainment, Old Timey Pro Wrestling is certainly a retro Wrestling title with a lot of charm behind it. Unfortunately, Olde Timey Wrestling's greatest flaw is it's grapple system. On the surface, the grapple system follows a timing based engine similar to what players would find in the Fire Pro Wrestling series Simply walk up to your opponent, wait for both Wrestlers to lock up, and then input your grapple (once and only once). On difficulty levels 1 to 3, being able to pull off grapples against the CPU is a cakewalk. Go one level higher to level 4 and the CPU will begin dominanting the player with near-perfect execution whenever a grapple is involved. The difficulty spike from novice to expert ramps up very quickly in Championship mode as well, making the whole affair feel unplayable once the CPU starts upping it's difficulty factor. Update notes have indicated that the author of Old Timey is aware of the CPU issues, but the problem still persists at the time of writing this review. For a $4 Wrestling title, what few features that are available in Old Timey Wrestling are passable. The included Create-A-Wrestler mode, while bare bones as it may be, is a welcomed addition offering some semblance of customizability to a player's experience. Over the years, legendary Pro-Wrestlers akin to Karl Gotch, Lou Thesz and Gorgeous George have been scattered across various video games. Though, having an entire game dedicated to a time in Wrestling before coloured television with an asthetic lifted directly from the early 1900's is a concept that has never been fleshed out to the degree Old Timey Wrestling has brought to the gaming table. Old Timey is a game I wanted to enjoy, but due to the A.I. CPU programming and awkward lockup timining, I can't recommend this title in it's current state. At the moment: stick with downloading your favorite legends in Fire Pro World.
I like the game but the grapple timing is off. Please fix
Excelente juego de lucha libre que apenas pide recursos del pc y va en cualquier cosa, filtro gráfico muy original, puede parecer sencillo pero no lo es, realmente lo recomiendo muy mucho este juego, ser mentora a veces tiene estas gratas sorpresas.
Wrestling Classics: Olde Timey Pro Wrestling es un juego deportivo de corte retro desarrollado por LunarCore Games. El título nos propone un viaje en el tiempo hasta la década de 1920 para vivir la lucha libre profesional antes de los espectáculos modernos. La Experiencia: Nos hemos subido al ring esperando un arcade desenfrenado, pero nos hemos encontrado con un ritmo mucho más metódico y fiel a la época que retrata. Aquí no hay saltos desde la tercera cuerda ni parafernalia explosiva; hemos tenido que sudar para entender el timing de los agarres y dominar los golpes básicos de aquel entonces. A nivel de modos, cuenta con lo esperable: exhibiciones, torneos por el campeonato y entrenamientos para ir puliendo técnica. Lo mejor: Concepto original: Es rarísimo ver un juego que aborde la lucha libre desde un punto de vista histórico de principios del siglo XX, dándole un encanto tremendo. Modo de edición: Poder crear y personalizar a tus propios luchadores retro alarga la vida útil y siempre suma puntos. Puntos a tener en cuenta: Falta de pulido: A pesar de la buena idea, las mecánicas y los agarres se sienten un poco toscos o poco explicados, y el número de movimientos resulta escaso si lo comparamos con otros títulos del género. Conclusión: Una curiosidad histórica para los fanáticos más acérrimos de la lucha libre que busquen algo distinto. Sin embargo, si esperas una jugabilidad pulida, ágil o frenética, puede que este viaje al pasado se te quede un poco corto de opciones. Valoración: 🤼 Originalidad: ★★★★★ (Temática nunca antes vista en el género) 🕹️ Jugabilidad: ★★☆☆☆ (Controles toscos y falta de variedad en los movimientos) 🛠️ Personalización: ★★★★☆ (El creador de luchadores es un añadido estupendo) 💸 Calidad/Precio: ★★★☆☆ ¡Gracias por leer!

I only have a few minutes in it thus far. However, the game is what it promises to be. A simple, basic, arcade like wrestling game inspired by the days of old. There are options to play with to keep you entertained for a few matches. And hey, its only 4 bucks US. Definitely $4 worth of fun here, and then some. Reminds me of old NES wrestling games, so hits that nostalgia button perfectly.
