Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
113 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Anyways, this game is highly recommended to anyone who has been looking for something that has very similar mechanics to the original Chao Garden in SA1 and SA2, I am aware that's what everyone in the reviews are saying.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Performance is a little rough but does run like a breeze on the Steam Deck.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story/writing is also great, not too overbearing and just the right amount of fluff I feel.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style is exactly what I would want in this sort of game (you live in a teapot for goodness sake).
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The character customization is also a nice touch, as while you are stuck playing as a specific named character and can't make your own, the ability to change outfits helps make them feel more like your own personal avatar.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I think the soundtrack does very well in setting the tone and I enjoy that different racing spots have unique music!
