Surely there was a better pun to be made than “Hamster-Fu”
In Hamsterdam, players become a hamster-fu master, using rhythm and precision to fight off the Vermin Gang and restore peace to the town. Gameplay involves classic brawler mechanics, with a focus on martial arts combos and timely counters. Players must face off against the gang's faceless goons and challenging boss battles, ultimately facing off against the villainous chinchilla, Marlo.

Critic Reviews
Hamsterdam Review
Hamsterdam is a mobile title through-and-through. It's got all of the tropes normally associated with mobile games, such as limited gameplay mechanics and a heavy focus on purchasing cosmetic items, with none of the depth you should come to expect from your average Switch title. There's a lot of potential in the game's premise and presentation that could well be capitalised on for any future games, but here it feels like a bit of a wasted opportunity. Add to this the lengthy load times and technical issues, and this is game you'd be best off avoiding.
