Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
While the gameplay loop is quite fun and it's satisfying to create a ridiculously overpowered city/hero, after a while the game visibly starts to stutter.
125 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
It more like a flavor text than "Story" though.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
- Graphics and sounds are very clear and create a great atmosphere
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
Movement is clean, music is good, and it runs super well on both PC and Steam Deck.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
- poorly optimized difficulty levels (you play more than 3/5 of the game on normal and hard)

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
Maybe with a multiplayer and more mechanics I'd recommend this one
