"Disappointing"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A simplistic combat system, average graphics and a dreadful third person camera. Very disappointing!

"Could have been great if it was playable without a guide."
2 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

For everything this game does right, which is actually quite a lot as it's exciting and well paced with enjoyably ridiculous action all over the place, it's unfortunately hamstrung by the way it refuses to ever tell you how anything actually works and as a result is just an incredibly frustrating mess unless you're playing with a guide in hand.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining that it's hard, it's actually not, what it is, is arbitrary. For example, it straight up lies about how the parrying system works and tells you to parry in the direction of the attack, when what it means is in the direction of the enemy's main mass, which wouldn't seem so bad except the first real test it gives you for that skill involves an enemy which attacks using wide sweeping arcs from the sides and you're going to assume you're not hitting them because the camera won't stay still.

Oh yeah, speaking of the camera, they also never bother to explain that there's a lock on or how it works, and if you don't know, the camera is one of the worst I've ever seen as it will determinately reposition itself so it's looking away from the bosses for no reason constantly, resulting in you getting pummeled from off screen over and over.

Heck, even when you buy useful new moves like dodges, the game never tells you how to do them, there's no practice mode either so again, time to just look it up or hope you stumble on it.

In short, it's fun, it's exciting and it does everything in it's power to make sure that the player never discovers that.
