Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I enjoyed playing as the Fans or Manny the most out of all characters, Martin as well to some extent because of quick executions, but he's not that much of a recurring character as the other 2.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Gameplay wise it's good, but to me the real fun is pulling off full combos (Killing all the enemies in a level without losing combo streak) or just getting S-ranks in general.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
As far as OST goes, while Wrong Number has bangers it's hard to compete against the original soundtrack from Hotline Miami.
