Every character has different attacks aligned to the various attack chains, resulting in pretty wildly different playstyles.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
23 of 114 sampled reviews raised it
I absolutely love a crowded screen, and when each enemy presents a unique threat, the combat math is fun.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
12 of 114 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting is great, and sometimes the writing is a little funny, too.

TL;DR: Slower beat-em up with lots of variety, tons of aggressive enemies on screen at once, cool graphics.
