Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Im 10 hours in with a single friend to co-op and we have switched characters so many times we are still running Blight level 6 or less (Normal or Easy).

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Really dissapointed in the amount of content, replayability, gameplay, progression and how badly programmed this game is as this game looks like 2012 Flash game and costs 20€.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
However, in multiplayer the bots are always leashed to one of the players, and in practice if the Bot is getting uppity one of us just walks to the other side of the room while the other solves the puzzle.

The music and sound effects are well done and help you enjoy your journey through the dungeons more.
