Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It’s pretty fun overall, wisely adopting a completely different gameplay style from its source.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
All are presented in fine 8-bit style seemingly taken straight from the classic Nintendo, and indeed the controls are limited to directions, two buttons, a pause menu, and a system menu.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Each one is designed like a classic Nintendo Entertainment System game with 8-bit-styled graphics.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
It's very funny and actually has a pretty bumping soundtrack too.
