Replayability - Thanks to the procedurally generated levels that are based on a seed, so players players may share the seed to play the same maps and encounters, and the daily challenges that provide one attempt to score high in the online leaderboards, not to mention unlockable content and achievements, the game provides many hours of challenging fun.

Graphics - Cartoonish and pleasant, with detailed characters and special effects, there is just enough enemy and scenery variation to keep the game interesting for a long time.
Characters

20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Interface - Even with a certain degree of complexity involving character and item stats, not to mention skill effects and particularities, the whole interface is clean and simple, while still providing players with the ability to mouse over mostly everything in order to reveal a tooltip with all the information and math needed, effectively removing the need to look on wikis or guides for them.
