What players say

It's pretty good, tough a little bit easy (even on normal). There is no hard difficulty, only easy and normal. The DLC ads more replayability but makes the game somewhat easier. The story is... well there is nearly no story at at all. Also if you want (steam) achievements, you must get the dlc, as 50% of the achievements are "locked" behind the dlc. I got it for 2€, and it was definitely worth it.

I had a solid 8 hrs of Fun with this game. i bought it on sale for like 4€ so that's 100% worth it. Not the best game in terms of variety, but definitely worth to buy on sale

Though I really like the artstyle and don't mind some grinding, this game fails to offer anything new between runs.
