Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
With a story that almost requires outside reading to understand and a cast of zany characters that'll amuse and disturb in equal turn, killer7 is worth a try just to be able to say you've done so.
94 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
(+) The control system is truly unique, usually quite intuitive and perfectly suits the on-rails nature of gameplay

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The Game looks visually much better mainly of the improved High Definition (Full HD) textures.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack is one of the best in my opinion as there are so many memorable tracks for me.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
Though the game offers a chunky experience with a roughly 12-hour campaign, there is some incentive for a second run too: beyond getting to experience the story with clearer eyes thanks to the endgame revelations, the game features a postgame mode with a tantalizing new feature and much higher difficulty to satisfy returning veterans.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
- The tutorials only display gamepad buttons which is good if you're using a Xbox controller but mouse and keyboard is far superior but then again confusing because the game only displays gamepad prompts.
