Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
36 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay mechanics are at once satisfyingly complex, bafflingly arcane (and I don't mean in the "magic" sense), and leave you sitting, slack-jawed, simply wondering "wat".
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
19 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
The combat can also be fairly fun once you get into the swing of it, as it is fairly fast-paced and satisfying, especially when compared to similar games on the genre.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
It is worth noting the pleasant pixel graphics, weapons reload animation, a variety of enemies and excellent soundtracks under which to destroy monsters is a pleasure.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
7 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
I also really liked the moments when you are surrounded by crowds of enemies and you destroy them under the driving soundtrack.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
5 of 103 sampled reviews raised it
The ascetic is fantastic and the story even though its vague is interesting.
