Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
- Great soundtrack (duh, it's A7X)
32 of 160 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
the Graphics are not half bad for a mobile port. the art style works with the style the band has set up and stays consistant (one of my favorite map visually is Little Piece of Heaven)
31 of 160 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
You may buy stronger characters, but you can still beat the game with the starting character and a decent amount of skill
30 of 160 sampled reviews raised it
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
- It's a mobile port, so it does not take advantage of the extra PC input possibilities (Play with a gamepad)
10 of 160 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
If they added map of some kind as in the pause menu or an item pick up that would be helpful.
