Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
97 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It’s challenging and addictive while the gameplay is intuitive once you get into the swing of it.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
35 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As for the positives the music and artstyle are perfect, the story and quest are simplistic but fun, the combat is fast and easy too understand but has a lot of skill involved.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I’ve played enough slow, tedious turn-based strategy games to know that this one stands out due to the fast-paced, exciting combat that keeps you constantly engaged and trying to push the boundaries of your power against a fairly clever AI.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics are 2D, but bright, colorful, full of sci-fi geekiness and Tyranty evil.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Cool graphics and sound effects along with streamlined, well optimized and detailed game play.
Linux compatibility
Players who bring up Linux compatibility mostly praise it.
4 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The artwork and music make it even better, and the native Linux version is the cherry on the delicious cake.
