Pros
Pro Polished art design
The graphics, music and voice acting are all top notch. Considering the amount of money this game made through its Kickstarter, it is no surprise the extent of the polish of the game.
Pro Great story and aesthetics
The story is a really good Sci-FI tale that takes advantage of good music and wonderfully made pixel art.
Pro Parallel stories
There are two stories that the player switches between while playing.
Cons
Con Poor story in second act
The second act of the game has an increasingly incoherent story that explains very little of what is going on. Considering the first act ends with a cliffhanger and many questions to be asked, to see the second half explain almost none of it makes for a frustrating story.
Con Letterboxed on the sides
There are black bars on both sides of the game.
Con Poor combat sequences
The combat sequences feel a bit forced and not all that fun.
