69 of 205 sampled reviews raised it
With games like this, I always feel like you add about 100 hours of replayability if you allow people to mod your game.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
19 of 205 sampled reviews raised it
Originally, I'd bought this game knowing that it was flawed simply because I adored the art style and was hoping the dev would one day fix it.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
12 of 205 sampled reviews raised it
I think the soundtrack gets a little repetitive after a few runs in a row, but it's beautiful nonetheless.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
11 of 205 sampled reviews raised it
The decent turn based combat and the modicum of overarching unlocks offer a reasonable distraction for the player; yet it lacks much variety otherwise, the HUD is absurdly uncooperative and the overall world feels void of creative passion.
