Audio

64 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I liked some of the witty banter and the silly/good voice acting in it.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
61 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This makes the combat somewhat enjoyable, although the game never tells you at what point the iframe activates during the animation.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
45 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Pros- Fun art style that brings you into the world with child-like eyes, without making you feel like your watching those poorly drawn modern day cartoons.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As far as achievements go, a nice chunk are tied to beating this on every difficulty which, for how simple the combat is, I feel is a big ask.
