Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The music fits the game well, though it’s understated a lot after the apocalypse happens, nearly non existent, the voice acting in the game is fun, the old new York accent of Hank mixed with the Pennsylvania accent of Larry, you can see why they’re good friends, They have a great chemistry that fits the characters well.

While its cartoonish art style may suggest a lighthearted tone, don't be fooled - this game is anything but child's play.
