Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
158 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat arenas are divided into a square grid, and fights are fast paced, usually taking only a few turns to complete.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
154 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The way they handle characters, bosses are probably the most enjoyable fights overall, the writing is well done, not a single crash or softlock for me personally so far and shock value that's well done rather than just there for shock value.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
113 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I didn't experience any progression bugs though others have complained about those.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
52 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The introduction showcases the vibrant art style and offers an enticing glimpse of what's to come.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There are some areas where the game could perhaps do with a little more variety (like perhaps another handful of enemy types, particularly for the later chapters, or a few more tracks on the otherwise great soundtrack), but the game rightly spends much of its time on its companions, which are the heart and soul of any good party-based RPG
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A Persona-like with vibes for days (Kurt Feldman's OST even makes mundane parts feel like a party), super unique battle system that tickled my brain the same way as Into The Breach, fun breezy story, extremely cool environments and character design.
