Pro Good controls
The controls are tight and responsive, which is great for a beat em up game as you will need to make precise moves in order to fight well against the enemies on each stage.
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 High difficulty
The gameplay can be quite tough, especially considering it uses roguelike elements by way of randomized stages, which means you never know what is going to be thrown at you next.
