Lots and lots of puzzles, and multiple ways to finish the game. Comprised of mainly block moving puzzles to progress room to room in the games dungeons. While there are a few other puzzles throughout the game, mainly block moving is what the player will be doing.
Cons
Con Tedious level design
There is a lot of backtracking and lever pulling that gives a feeling of lazy level design to elongate the game.
Con Co-op may leave one or two players out on certain stages
Some stages do not offer gameplay for all co-op players. Although the co-op is drop in drop out, certain points of the game do not offer anything for the other players to do.
Con Puzzles can feel repetitive
While there are a lot of puzzles to solve in the game, there are only three objects that are used to solve them and after a while it can feel repetitive due to how limited the puzzle solving can be.
