Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
112 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is very unlikely of these kind of games to have such a good plot but this game does not fail to deliver it.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
69 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It feels like a terribly optimized GBA/Handheld port to PC - gameplay itself is fun when it's actually working which isn't as common as it should be
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It has a steep learning curve, but it is very rewarding once you overcome the hurdles.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The different types of weapons such as cutlasses are very fun to use and you get a lot of special items that allow you to restore uses of unique weapons in order to keep using them.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
9/10 recommend (controls a little difficult, doesn't read my controller, and the graphics aren't too impressive. But it is a beautiful and well-crafted game with a great soundtrack, interesting characters and plot, and is certainly challenging).
