It's very clear to see how these games share some design aspects.įor one, the heavily style-over-substance of the games as well as the ability to pick abilities as you-like-it which lends itself well to the ARPG genre.

They are ultra annoying and difficult to kill. For a less than 5 hour game it seemed to drag a bit. Ending was confusing which leads to little replay value.ĭon't get me wrong, I had fun with this game but toward the end I didn't know what in the hell was going on and just wanted to finish it.

The ground coming up under you as you walk for some reason did not settle well with me.
