Speaking of story the game has an entertaining narrative that while not groundbreaking or indepth, still does a great job pulling you in.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
22 of 113 sampled reviews raised it
On paper, this system promises a great deal of variety—especially since local co-op for up to four players allows friends to share the adventure.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
16 of 113 sampled reviews raised it
I appreciate that the cast of playable characters is actually pretty diverse, instead of "another generic white guy #3562", too.
