The game features loads of sidequests and a fun combat system that will require blocking, timing and reflexes to succeed.

51 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style and sound design are also very stylized, it almost felt like a Maxwell Atoms Billy and Mandy alternate universe to me, in the very best sense of the comparison.

26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I think it would be considered a casual RPG with great voice acting (which you can skip).
Difficulty

This game really gives lots of fun, texts are awesome, you gonna laugh entire game (definitely play on the hardest difficulty).
