    This game feels pretty reminiscent of shenmue when it comes to the exploration formula overall a very solid beat em up game by Yours Truly Capcom there are other better beat them up games like viewtiful Joe yet again it is very much hard to find these days

    It's a beat-em-up. You beat people up. If nothing else, it offers the bare minimum of gameplay to meet the name, but all the other claims of deeper gameplay are half-assed.

    Bland gameplay, however, stifles what inspiration there is. The fighting action is fundamentally underwhelming, and a poor camera and constant loading further handcuff things.

    An intriguing idea, but it deserves a better game than this.
