Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
There's definitely something here, there's just nothing driving people back to play the game, and no traction online pushing new players to buy it.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
I have put in 20 hours ish on PS5 version and saw this for $1 so why not buy it along to a few friends this is a fun party game it sort of reminds me of Splatoon salmon run but more tamer then the actual mode and I always loved Terada Tera art style which fits so well with FAKE TYPE a perfect combo if you ask me and the OST is fun being catchy with FAKE TYPE and SAKANAMON even if it was just one song I did wish there was more songs but I am not gonna complain since they are all good,lastly my issues of the game is the story pacing is too slow,only 4 characters as base is kinda bad,and the game freezes for abit swapping characters and when the match starts(noticed on PS5 not on PC) but overrall this is a great small party game I hope I can play MP more often.

Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
There are quite a few maps with nice aesthetics/variety, a lot of cute cosmetics, tons of gear/weapons to unlock, and the monetization seems very fair.

Servers and matchmaking
Players who bring up Servers and matchmaking mostly praise it.
Efforts have been made to prevent this from happening, like adding cross-platform support and removing region-based servers and for a while that helped but as of writing this there is a single player in-game on Steam, probably even less on console.
