How it feels

You control two characters at once. Slash through swarms and huge bosses, risk your health for more power, and restart from scratch when you die.

What players say

Players praise the unique dual-character control, saying it takes time to learn but feels rewarding. Opinions split on whether it works best in coop or solo, and some note grinding for unlocks and camera problems.
