How it feels
A challenging tactical RPG that offers a humorous and irreverent take on classic RPG tropes, viewed from the villain's perspective.

What players say
Players praise the comedy and music but are split on the combat, which some call a clever puzzle and others find tedious. The lack of checkpoints and no manual save force replaying long battle sections, and the humor relies heavily on pop-culture references that not everyone enjoys.
