Gameplay

85 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It adds all the old school references you admired as a child and throws you in to a frantic panic to grind out levels, complete side quests and defeat an evil boss all in under 30 seconds!
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
67 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Her cursed storyline introduces branching paths, hilarious dialogue, and dramatic tension for maximum impact.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

I like the new graphics style better than the classic pixel version because it's more clear how the characters look and how they emote (the pixel avatars are too low res for me).
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There is nothing overly broken with the game is boring to the point where I actually had to stop mid campaign but there was not much fun there either so I gave it a barely passable Positive but would Not Recommend to most people for enjoyability unless for an hour or 2 of multiplayer with a friend.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is a rather hard level but it is truly epic and when you finish it you feel like you accomplished something.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you really wanna play this game with friends deadass just go buy the game on Xbox, it runs better and has a functioning multiplayer.
