The gameplay is simple but effective, and there's enough enemy variety throughout to keep you entertained.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
133 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The writing is hit or miss; for the most part it's solid and the dialogue gives the main characters their own unique personalities while keeping a consistent through-line that anchors them all together in the same universe.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
111 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Wall running and double jumping in a 1930s noir detective game sounds absurd but it clicks immediately and stops combat from ever feeling flat-footed.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
88 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style reminds me a lot of the Disney characters they have.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
73 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting once again from Troy Baker is stellar, as equally is the entire cast, there's a lot of really funny one liners and little engagements I loved throughout.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
On my RTX 3080ti I was far above 60 fps at all times.
