Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
39 of 89 sampled reviews raised it
If you're someone who mostly cares about the combat or you are a story-driven person both of those are possibilities you can take away from this game and feel pleased with the experience to conclude from.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
22 of 89 sampled reviews raised it
There is a nice progression system outside of combat where you have to spend the coins you collect in battle, and you can craft how you want to customize your character - either investing in gear, passives, or skills useful outside battles.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
20 of 89 sampled reviews raised it
Playing this, I am reminded how much I love combat-centric games where you can press any button in any order and it does something different even if you don't intend for it to.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
17 of 89 sampled reviews raised it
The visuals are great, the art style is unique, unsettling and ugly but it fits the game perfectly.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
9 of 89 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty is handled very elegantly (there is a spin-wheel that can grant you extra bonuses when you die, which I've found pretty useful for my taste).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
7 of 89 sampled reviews raised it
The key, albiet only true sell the game has is it's style and possibly soundtrack.
