100% of themes are praise91 helpful reviews0% are complaints
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
27 of 91 sampled reviews raised it
The different weapons are of course cool, and the fact you choose your path for the story and make choices to dictate your ending makes it incredibly fun and makes it enjoyable for replays.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
24 of 91 sampled reviews raised it
When I saw the pitch for the game (as well as the fact that it has online coop), I was sold.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
22 of 91 sampled reviews raised it
It has a difficulty setting on it which is nice for those of us not so great at bullet hell games, and despite being an RL game, it has a minor amount of progression with leveling up your characters that doesn't necessarily make the game easy, but does reward you long term for your efforts.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
10 of 91 sampled reviews raised it
There is multiple routes, a few characters, unlockables, and difficulty selector for one to want to replay the game multiple times.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
8 of 91 sampled reviews raised it
But as far as I have seen, the story mode actually adds a nice sense of player choice with the random procedural generated maps.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
7 of 91 sampled reviews raised it
Rogue Star Rescue is a fun top down twin stick shooter that really shines when it comes to multiplayer.
