[GRAPHICS AND OPTIMISATION]
Voice acting good, the voice actor cast is amazing.
On my Steam Deck I was able to run the game at max settings, hitting around 60 fps consistently with about 2–3 hours of battery life, making it an excellent option for gaming on the go.
Note: I played with a controller, the way the game was probably meant to be played.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
