Unique Gameplay Loop: Mixes mech combat, base-building, and resource gathering in creative ways.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.

Challenging early on, but once you've worked you're way through and earned some proper weapons and armor, easier to handle.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
29 of 174 sampled reviews raised it
It has a nice story that ties in very well into the world-building, complete with in-game well-spoken cutscenes and cheerfully involved characters.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
27 of 174 sampled reviews raised it
Also a nice touch - the coop is asymetric, meaning one player is a dwarf controlling a mech, the other one is a little flying dragon, that gets to places the other can't.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
12 of 174 sampled reviews raised it
Stunning Visuals & Atmosphere: The world is vibrant and mysterious, with great music and sound.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 174 sampled reviews raised it
The story is intriguing and the voice acting from the 2 main characters is just great.
