What players say

88% of 7,385 reviews are positive · 71% of 21 in the last 30 days

Players praise the range of combat builds, co-op campaign, boss fights, and humorous writing. The most common complaint is that some puzzles feel tedious or unfair, while others find progression grindy or combat unresponsive. Online co-op players also report bugs and disconnects that can interrupt boss fights or Arcade runs.
