Now considering that these types of games are becoming more and more scarce, it was yet another bullet point that had me intrigued from the outset. ![]() Playlogic has done a commendable job of producing an interesting backdrop, but failed in delivering an engaging gaming experience.īefore the game released the PR for the game had it labeled as several meshes of genres, but in the end it ends up being a straight-forward beat ’em up title. The concept is solid and does cater to the older audience, but the gameplay and camera problems often cause more frustration than enjoyment.
