Gameplay

9 of 33 sampled reviews raised it
Controls are great, gameplay is the good kind of hectic that becomes meditative when you get into the zen of it.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
8 of 33 sampled reviews raised it
The story is decent, with a twist on the zombie horde game by using woodlings instead of the typical zombie humanoids.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
5 of 33 sampled reviews raised it
As opposed to twin-stick shooters with procedural levels or abstract art style, this game feels carefully crafted all over from its levels to the cutscenes.
