- “I love the fast-paced and smoothly flowing action, the simple yet difficult to master gameplay, the exhilarating feeling of chaining several sword flings into a kill, and so much more.”
- “With a simple control scheme, it does not take long to jump into the game and start having fun; however, there is a deceptive amount of depth to its gameplay through a handful of hidden and subtle mechanics that keeps the game fresh and makes you want to keep playing and learn how to master it.”

- “Also has the most absolute peak art style I've seen in ages.”
- “I am in love with the visuals and audio especially.”
- “Sg2 has great potential, very nice vs mode, campaign gameplay is quite chaotic (needs some work on feedback and color values a lot as characters and backdrops blend in at some point and pacing is very fast so it's easy to get lost), but overall lots of cool ideas for camera (can be dizzy too) and level design, art style (and the way it's mixed) is also something you either love or hate.”
- “Even with a seemingly simple and minimalistic art style, every sprite, map, and animation is so evocative and rich with texture and personality.”
- “In combat, the intent of the art style comes to fruition as you realize that any further step of complexity would make its lightning-fast combat too chaotic to keep track of.”
