Gameplay

This is a classic formula but DARIUSBURST Chronicle Saviours slaps new mechanics on it and really make you feel like you're playing a good old fashioned arcade shooter.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
57 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Several tracks stick with you, the OST is definitely worth listening to outside the game.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

Music, Graphics, etc.: The music is really good on this game, even certain ships on CS Mode give levels different BGM sets, and that really adds a refreshing feeling to levels you are good at and are only playing for the PTS.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Still better than EA, at least this game is pay for difficulty, not pay to win.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Authentic arcade experience—AC mode plays just like the arcade Dariusburst Another Chronicle EX, complete with four-player local co-op and dual-monitor support with resolutions as high as 1440p for each display.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game allows great use of my Sega Genesis USB controller with the ability to remap each ship independently, plus the ability to re-map on the fly in the pause menu.
