What players say

Players are split on this entry: long-time fans call it the most disappointing part of the series, saying it feels disconnected from the Secret Order lore and has a flat story. Others find it a relaxing casual game. Several note the graphics look lower resolution than earlier games, and the bonus game is very short.
