Let’s back track a bit first to explain the premise of the gameplay loop – which is honestly pretty addicting.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
57 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The only way to salvage some stuff is if you're playing in CO-OP.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Unfortunately, while the game’s art style and story show promise, its repetitive late-game grind, restrictive timer mechanics, and abrupt narrative conclusion ultimately drag the experience down.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It would also be an injustice to not mention the phenomenal music score, composed by Ryan Ike, which breathes an unparalleled atmosphere into every section of the game, whether it is biome-specific themes or boss fights, and all the way to the player hub serene soundtrack.
