What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The difficulty of the game is mostly well managed (but, do save the DLC for after the main story or you might find a spike you weren't expecting), however, there are some parts that feel unfairly designed to drain your minion life-force, and shy of reloading areas or sinking minions into fighting beetles in the dungeon over and over, life force can be a slog to build back up at times.
1) Good graphics and atmosphere
The soundtrack complements this tone beautifully, mixing ominous orchestral pieces with lighthearted melodies that reflect the game’s comedic undertones.
Mostly still holds up, although I strongly recommend playing this game with a controller, as the mouse and keyboard controls can be very finicky and oftentimes get stuck sweeping minions when you want to control the camera, or sending them forward as you try to recall them.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 3 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
