Co-op

40 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
There was combat at night with not so difficult enemies, books that you could repair, co-op gameplay with proximity chat, a different Abby theme with some funny dialogue and concepts, and just genuinely felt like it came from the heart.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
38 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
Fun little game for less money than a Big Mac costs, and you get a simple, relaxing, goofy little gameplay loop to play with your friends.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
13 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
Getting to choose your difficulty by limiting books or monsters is great but that still doesnt help with the run around time.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
From the moment I launched it, the first thing that grabbed my attention was the art style.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
7 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
Overall, I'd recommend the game, it's great as a game to play with friends but also works quite well as a solo experience, which many games that advertise their multiplayer offerings often struggle with.
