Vandal

The style that gets lost in the visual and sound. His characters and sense of humor.
Everything about their struggles: hilarious.
Highly replayable and with lots of content after credits.

The platform, without being bad, is a few steps below the fights.
Some QTEs during moments of exploration.
Level design sometimes tends to repeat some very similar patterns and sections.

Attractive, addictive and very carefree story.
Perhaps the game that makes the best use of cellular shading.
Glossy level design.
Outstanding sound effects and soundtrack.
Correct duration, to its good extent.
You can adapt the difficulty a lot according to your abilities.

Some enemies become repetitive.

Fun arcade modes with significant longevity.
More space for the soundtrack
A multitude of content to unlock for FREE!

Challenge not suitable for the "rhythmically weak"... And from the heart.
The fact that this could be the last update makes us a little sad.

Shacknews

Colorful comic-inspired style is a visual treat
Dynamic, fun gameplay mechanics
Awesome soundtrack of original and licensed songs
A heartwarming narrative
Hilariously well-written, with witty dialogue
Multiple accessibility options
Still plenty to do after campaign ends

Would have preferred to control pace of all dialogue scenes
Some end-game content should have been unlockable at the start

Outerhaven Productions

Stellar action throughout, with new enemies brought in consistently.
Gorgeous anime/graphic novel graphics and animation quality.
Bosses are immaculately designed, with progressively tougher attacks thrown in as the battle proceeds.

The game gets a little repetitive toward the end as the combat gets a little stale for the last few hours.
Most levels are set in factory-like settings, not the outdoors.

Lords of Gaming

- Perfect execution on the rhythm of the game
- Fun and varied cast drive the plot
- Excellent combat and platforming gameplay
