    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is engaging and rooted in traditional Mexican culture and folklore, featuring a humorous and heartfelt narrative that includes a hero's quest to defeat an evil charro skeleton. Players appreciate the immersive experience, enhanced by side quests and collectibles, while the sequel continues the adventure seven years later. Although the storyline may come off as cheesy, it aligns with the developers' intent, providing a fun and complete gaming experience.

    • “The storyline is engaging and well-crafted, with plenty of humor and heart.”
    • “Story and theme are rooted in traditional Mexican culture and folklore.”
    • “The story is fun, the action feels fresh, and all DLC is on the disk, so it’s a complete game you’ll be able to enjoy for many years from now.”
    • “The story is cheesy, but I think that was what the makers were going for.”
    • “Camera pans out, at times it may be difficult to see what's going on. The story of the first game involves an evil charro skeleton named Carlos Calaca attacking the village and kidnapping Lupia to perform a world-destroying ritual. Juan must now go on a hero quest to obtain a mask and become more powerful to defeat the main villain. The story of the second game takes place 7 years after the first game.”
    • “You complete story objectives while getting upgrades to progress to new areas and battle enemies along the way. You collect coins dropped by defeated enemies, piñatas, and barrels to purchase upgrades to existing abilities. The game features drop-in, drop-out co-op play.”
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is fast-paced and action-packed, blending platforming, puzzle-solving, and combat elements typical of the Metroidvania genre. Players can unlock new areas and upgrades through power-ups and specific objectives, while engaging in brawler-style combat that encourages strategic combos and varied enemy interactions. Overall, the game offers a fun and challenging experience with well-integrated mechanics that keep the gameplay fresh and engaging.

    • “The game is really good at introducing new mechanics and integrates them well with the previous ones, so it doesn't feel obsolete.”
    • “Original setting, colorful and cheerful graphics, fast and fun gameplay, with numerous power-ups, upgrades, and unlockable areas, just like any respectable Metroidvania.”
    • “Now it's a race to see who gets all 3 first --- gameplay: the Metroidvania aspect comes in as you obtain power-ups that help you reach previously inaccessible areas. The brawler gameplay allows you to perform combos (longer combos yield more coins), and each enemy has different ways of being defeated, such as rolling past them and hitting them from behind, or breaking their color-coded armor with corresponding special moves before you can inflict actual damage. Upgrades are not only locked behind coins spent but also require meeting specific objectives, like defeating certain enemies with a specific ability or collecting a certain number of chests.”
    • “The gameplay itself is fast-paced and action-packed, with a mix of platforming, puzzle-solving, and combat.”
    • “The gameplay is fast, fun, and features numerous power-ups, upgrades, and unlockable areas, as is expected from any respectable Metroidvania.”
