57% of themes are praise43% are divided0% are complaints
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
17 of 63 sampled reviews raised it
The game rewards risky gameplay, by improving loot (potions, coins, etc) every time you use your special attack.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
11 of 63 sampled reviews raised it
Also, additional characters (like a wizard) & weapons (like spears) would be fun to add to the mix.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
10 of 63 sampled reviews raised it
The game keeps introducing new elements and challenges at a steady pace in a way that makes sure the game never gets boring, and it keeps the difficulty curve just right throughout; just as you get comfortable with the combat, new areas will introduce new enemy types requiring different tactics, as well as new hazards and more demanding boss fights.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
9 of 63 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay is tense, there is good feedback, the graphics are gorgeous (a least for retro lovers) and the music is a perfect fit.
