I have no concerns regarding with the gameplay or any of the mini-games, all of them are so fun.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I can forsee the need to grind the first level until I level up my mini-game characters so I can just beat lvl 2, and there are like 30 levels.

Mind you, I love the art style of this game and it's fun enough for a little while.

The game does play well on Steam Deck, though.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
The remake also introduces both online and local co-op, allowing friends to experience the full campaign together, making dungeon crawling and boss fights far more dynamic and communal than before.
