There is a lot of backtracking and lever pulling that gives a feeling of lazy level design to elongate the game.

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.

This game is old. While there may be ISOs floating around out there (as this may be considered abadonware), it can be a difficult game to find legitimately due to it not being manufactured anymore.
