It doesn't cater or pander, but instead feels like a game that the creator made for fun, and you can feel how much genuine love and care went into the style, gameplay, characters and story.

This music combined with visuals gives a really solid retro Sentai vibe to the game imo.

The character design, especially the monster design, is great even though its limited to eight colors.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
6 of 75 sampled reviews raised it
It's got super unique and engaging gameplay, with its puzzle-esque JRPG combat in which you have to use everything at your disposal to figure out the winning strategy.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

Music's really nice, it isn't as retro as the graphics or the sound effects, but that's fine, I still like pretty much all the tracks.
