Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
i even finish this game multiple times during night to day because the gameplay was really fun for that time, but playing now and seeing the jank maybe it's a PC port thing, left me with mixed feelings, i still like the game but the PC port sucks.

There are really much more puzzles and other situations, where you need some team work, which feels even better in the coop mode!
