The game offers a variety of play styles through its three distinct characters, each with unique time-based skills that enhance both combat and puzzle-solving.
The combat system is engaging and rewarding, especially with the time manipulation mechanics that allow for creative strategies and combos.
Despite its challenges, the game provides a deep and satisfying experience for players willing to invest time and effort into mastering its mechanics.

The game suffers from low production values, including poor graphics, confusing level design, and subpar voice acting that detracts from the overall experience.
The difficulty level is excessively high, with enemies regenerating health and punishing mechanics that can lead to frustration, especially for casual players.
Navigation can be challenging due to large, maze-like levels and a confusing in-game map, making it difficult to progress without getting lost.

Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of experiences, with some praising the semi-open world and enjoyable combat mechanics, while others criticize the game's stiffness and frustrating boss mechanics. The addition of new features has been met with mixed reactions, as some enhancements improve the experience, but others detract from it, leading to a sense of imbalance and confusion.
