Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
83 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Find the maidens, defeat the bosses, go to the next level - that is the basic gameplay loop for the early parts of the game, and it works quite well, especially when the game has a fair amount of playability in two selectable characters.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
75 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You can also parry incoming attacks with good timing and evade them altogether with the roll movement.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
56 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It plays and feels like Barbarian 2, but the reasonably high def graphics (which mostly seem to be sprites made from 3d Poser shots) are at least a welcome alternative to all the retro pixel art indie games out there.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
However, that is made up for by having the most hilarious story campaign ever.
