God Damn The Garden

Overall, God Damn the Garden is an interesting game. I found myself enjoying it towards the end, but most of the time I spent with it I was frustrated by the lack of direction I felt. The combat is fine and the different combat style from any of the other titles I had played before was novel and unique but the lack of clarity makes it a less intriguing offer. At the price point, it is not a bad pickup, but I am not rushing to recommend it.
