What is there to say? I finished the game and I felt like a hero for a week. On to playthrough #2...

This game takes elements from a few other games and combines them very well. It's especially fun with a friend or more.

Can't recommend this enough. The simple graphics may be misleading. I enjoyed this a lot, definitely a lot of bang for the buck. I should put more time into it.

As a first-time player of this game, im enjoying myself a lot. I get the problems people have with the way this remaster was done, but Im not seeing anything thats wrong with the game - it feels ok to me.

And dark souls is great.

To me, this game is simply overrated. It's definitely not a bad game, I just didn't enjoy it. I found myself forcing myself to play it, so I tried to change my attitude in order to have fun. At first I tried it on hard, for the challange, figured I might enjoy it more on normal setting, but still didn't find it fun. The platforming wasn't really enjoyable (other than a few specific challanges), the music was melancholic in an annoying way, the story was nothing special, the narating was not helping. The only thing that was special in this game is the saving mechanic, but that doesn't really save the game.

Despite all of that, it's definitely an above-average game, so I feel like I should recommend it - give it a go if you get the chance, people seem to like the music and the platforming more than I did.

I ended up 100% completing the game, as I played it while listening to lectures in college. I didn't love it, but it was a positive experience.

Very cute Point and Click game. The characters are fun, the design is pretty cool. Near the end I kind of stopped following the story, though.

Only negative I had with this game, is that it gives you clues too often and too easily - I didn't have a chance to solve some of the challenges because the game gave me the clue before I got to even try anything.

It's a relatively short game - around 2-2.5 hours - so if you like P&C's, you should definitely get it and finish it.

This game offers a few hours of good fun and satisfaction, I really liked it, the only real flaw is that the ending is a little too late.

The game mechanics are very fun, they makes you fight quickly and instinctively. When you get good, you feel like a ninja, which i really liked. The soundtrack and the story arent anything amazing, nothing special really. The final stage or two are long, and they feel like they're pushing the end away needlessly.

All in all, I think everyone can enjoy this game, and I would recommend it easily, but I don't think that I'll ever play this again.

One of the best games for local multiplayer. If you have 3 or more players, this game can supply hours of fun. We went into the game knowing nothing at all about it, and so we had to find out how to control the things ourselves, and discover what you can do with them, which was amazingly fun. then, we got better it turned to be an amazing fighting game - everyone should try it.

I never tried the online part of it, seems less fun to me than playing with friends at home, and I think thats where the game fails for most people. So if you're planning to mostly play online, I cant talk about it, but for offline with friends - this is perfect.

Obviously, this is an old game, and it looks like it - but it doesn't really feel like it. Even now it feels fast-paced and the mechanics are nice. When the game gets running after the tutorial bit, it can give you a great deal of stress - when you wait for everything on the screen to line up perfectly for you to make your run, hoping everything will work perfectly. And then, when you get to the end of it, after trying your best not to leave anyone behind, and you figure you missed a few secrets here and there, so you start again just to find out there are so many secret areas to find, many of them basically staring you in the face and laughing at you.

The game is not easy, pretty long, and has amazing artwork and music to intensify the atmosphere - definitely worth it, even today.

There's a lot to be said about this game, which is surprising to me, because I thought this was going to be a pretty straight forward game.

The single player mode really feels like they thought about every kind of player. First, you get all kinds of difficulty levels to choose from - new gamers can play an easy going game, old gamers can have a real challange. Then, you get a full story to drown in, but you mostly don't have to stay and listen to the diaolgs - you can run through the game for a quick-paced play if you want, or stay and listen to every word if you wish. There are many secrets to be found, which i found fun on my second run, but you don't need any of them to enjoy or finish the game. You can really play the game in your own style, and they game kind of feels like it took your style in consideration.

The levels are well designed, and fun. The music is amazing, but i found it quite fun to turn it off and just play Slayer instead. I havnt played alot of the arcade mode, but it seems pretty fun to me. The snap map mode is fun, especially with friends - you have maps that can be played by up to 4 players. The online multiplayer is pretty good, not perfect, but you can spend a bunch of time on it.

I had a lot of fun running through all the campaign levels, and then going through them again, trying to find all the secrets and getting all the fun achievements that steam has to offer.

All in all, i expected a fast-paced but shallow game, and im happy to say its much more than that - yes, there's alot of gore and demon-bashing, but there's also a lot of sense of accomplishment to go along with it.
