Gameplay

It also is more linear in terms of story which I honestly prefer because open world games just overwhelm me.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
77 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I love the story so far, the graphics appeal to me since I'm an old school gamer (think late 80s, early 90s) where gameplay is much more important than flashy graphics wanting 160 fps.

The graphics are adorable, bordering on impressive for bosses and big vehicles and I feel like this is the best of its genre- kind of like stardew valley.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
21 hours in 2 days. i love this game with a passion. it's extremely fun alone, and with a friend who guided you through the first 4 hours of your time in the game.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The resources are balanced perfectly- you have enough for the campaign (depending on the difficulty), but completionists may find a challenge.
