  • The game offers a unique and distinctive art style, combining hand-drawn combat sprites with a monochromatic pixel art overworld, which enhances the game's atmosphere and aesthetic appeal.
  • The soundtrack is highly praised, featuring a large number of unique battle themes and memorable music that significantly enriches the gameplay experience.
  • The story and writing balance humor, social commentary, and engaging characters well, providing an entertaining and sometimes poignant narrative that builds effectively on the original game.
  • The combat system, while improved from the original, remains relatively basic, can be slow, occasionally buggy, and suffers from unclear mechanics and frustrating RNG elements that may hinder strategic play.
  • The overworld can be large and monotonous with a monochrome palette, leading to players easily getting lost and navigation sometimes being cumbersome due to camera positioning and lack of keybind customization.
  • There are several bugs and technical issues including game crashes, softlocks during battles, and inconsistent explanations of game mechanics such as corruption and AP systems, which can detract from the overall experience.
  • music
    82 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is widely praised for its unique, memorable, and high-quality tracks, especially the battle themes which elevate the combat experience. The soundtrack blends brass, trap, and jazzy elements with an artificial yet fitting atmosphere, featuring distinct tunes for nearly every encounter that greatly enhance immersion. Overall, it is considered a standout aspect, with many players eager to listen to the OST outside the game.

    • “The soundtrack is phenomenal and I mean legit I've paid more attention to music in the past couple years but Absolute Jazz stands above a lot of triple-A games which really sucks considering this game's definitely not going to get the proper recognition it deserves.”
    • “The music in the game, a lot of the music I have enjoyed so far as well, the battle music really gets you going. Fighting Dingo and when the music starts up, really makes you get feeling of 'getting down to business', especially learning of who Dingo is.”
    • “The pencil man's song is about the most dramatic song I've ever heard in a video game.”
    • “The music in the game all have a somewhat similar sound to each other, combined with the fact that you only get to hear most songs once, yes, once. It can easily be blurred out but some favorites may stick out.”
    • “There's a new song every single time you fight a new enemy which is bonkers considering the sheer amount of enemies you have to exterminate.”
    • “Personally, the combat music is a bit loud though that's usually on me since my ears are sensitive.”
  • story
    82 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in "Suits: Absolute Power" is regarded as a significant improvement over its predecessor, featuring a more compelling, engaging, and humor-infused narrative with memorable characters and an interesting, albeit sometimes convoluted, plot. While it can occasionally feel linear or confusing and the dialogue is sometimes lengthy, the story effectively expands the game's world, incorporates nostalgic elements, and balances humor with darker themes, making it enjoyable for both returning players and newcomers. Overall, the story, complemented by strong art and music, is praised for adding depth and charm to the game despite minor pacing and clarity issues.

    • “This game is the epitome of what a sequel should be, as it expands on the first game tenfold: a more in-depth and compelling story, better writing, absolutely phenomenal music, and a more detailed combat system with new and interesting mechanics.”
    • “Suits absolute power, more like absolute genius, the madlads at Technomancy did it again, another great soundtrack, a fantastic story, great visuals and animations.”
    • “Absolute power improves on the original in every single way, from combat, to visuals, to music, to storytelling and characterization.”
    • “The story can be a bit buggy, especially if going back and forth between areas or doing things in a different order than the creator expected, which can be an issue if you get lost. There are few guides for the story, so you may need to look for a Let's Play on YouTube to get help.”
    • “The story is shoved in your face so much that it disengages me from the whole thing.”
    • “That being said, the plot and metaplot just fall flat; the story keeps dropping hints at a great dénouement that just never happens.”
  • graphics
    51 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics showcase a significant improvement over its predecessor, featuring a unique and expressive art style that blends pixel art and hand-drawn sprites with fully animated cutscenes. The aesthetic is praised for its fitting, often dark and quirky design that enhances the story and world, though some sprites can be visually unclear at times. Overall, the visuals are highly regarded for their creativity, polish, and seamless integration with the game's atmosphere.

    • “This game is a definite step up from its predecessor, boasting fully animated cutscenes, enhanced graphics, and a more engaging combat system (albeit sticking to the tried-and-true RPG Maker formula).”
    • “The art in this game is great; it can go from the charming popsicle puppet art style of the characters during battles, to the spritework of overworld characters, to the detailed sketch drawings shown frequently throughout the game.”
    • “Amazing game with outstanding music and visuals, the story builds off the questions we got from the first Suits very well to give you a very interesting world to explore and I cannot gush about the graphics enough.”
    • “The trailer and promotional art had me excited to try it out, but then once I saw the in-game graphics, I almost felt like I was tricked.”
    • “Graphics: certainly an improvement all around, although the camera is very often way too close to your character, especially indoors, which makes navigation difficult.”
    • “While the artstyle is creative, some of the sprites make it a little hard to tell what's going on.”
  • gameplay
    37 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally described as fun, fast, and enjoyable with unique mechanics like a corruption system and a more detailed combat system than its predecessor. However, it suffers from poor explanation of key mechanics, repetitive combat, limited skill variety, and lacks quality-of-life features such as battle animation skips. Overall, while not groundbreaking, the gameplay effectively delivers a satisfying RPG experience with atmospheric and humorous elements.

    • “I recommend this game for good laughs, fun gameplay, and just a good time in general!”
    • “Loved it, great expansion upon the mechanics of the first game, highly recommend playing it!”
    • “With vast improvements to the gameplay, overhauled graphics that build on the original game without forgetting its roots, and a storyline that cleverly calls back to the original, it was an amazing experience playing through this.”
    • “The items usually aren't worth using beyond sandwiches, unless you want to speed things up or get an achievement. The way certain stats and mechanics work could be conveyed better. For example, I basically got the bad ending because I didn't realize items increase your corruption, and you need to use water to reduce your corruption and get the good ending and its corresponding achievement.”
    • “The game doesn’t explain some of the important game mechanics like what your stats mean, what status effects are, or even how the corruption system works.”
    • “Gameplay-wise it's a bit simple, as you only really get 3 members in your party at once, with each getting 3-4 skills, a special, and just the basic attacks.”
  • humor
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is praised for being charming, quirky, and well-written, blending absurdist and dark comedy that often lands effectively. While some jokes are hit-or-miss, the overall tone balances humor with a serious storyline, offering a unique, engaging, and memorable experience enriched by witty dialogue and satirical elements. Fans appreciate the humor's integration with the art style, soundtrack, and gameplay, making it one of the standout aspects of the game.

    • “The writing is charming and funny, and the gameplay feels unique with lots of atmosphere.”
    • “The art style is really cool, and the world feels really fleshed out, plus the humor is incredibly well done!”
    • “The dialogue is actually funny, and I laughed multiple times.”
  • stability
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game shows occasional bugs, particularly with objectives when exploring areas non-linearly or during the final section, which can cause confusion due to limited guidance. The battle system is basic, slow, and somewhat buggy, with repetitive audio loops highlighting stability issues. Additionally, some NPCs are indistinguishable, complicating interactions despite later revealing unique characters.

    • “The objectives can be a bit buggy, especially if going back and forth between areas or doing things in a different order than the creator expected. This usually isn't an issue but can be one if you get a bit lost. There are a couple of moments specifically in the earlier parts of the game with bugs, but you can usually figure your way out. There aren't many guides for the story, just the achievements, so you may be better off looking for a let's play on YouTube and skimming it until you find what you need help with.”
    • “Besides that, the final section was very strange when it came to glitches.”
    • “The battle system is basic, slow, and a tad buggy.”
  • character development
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The character development is highly praised for its exceptional and unique designs, making each character intriguing and memorable. Players enjoy the creativity and look forward to engaging with the diverse cast, enhanced by strong dialogue and overall presentation.

    • “11/10, also peak character design!”
    • “All the character designs are awesome.”
    • “The character design is very interesting and you'll look forward to the next wacky abomination you'll have the privilege to punch.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in this game is generally seen as either tedious and stressful, particularly when trying to earn money or XP, or completely unnecessary due to well-balanced difficulty and rewarding combat mechanics. Some players struggle with inefficient grinding methods, while others appreciate the game's design that avoids reliance on repetitive grinding.

    • “Getting money in this game is such a stressful event. I'm sure I was doing it wrong, but I'm used to grinding for money and XP to get better stuff and be stronger, but I couldn't for the life of me find a way to do that without it actually bringing negative results to my party.”
    • “Overall, a pretty good game that is held down by a few nasty bugs and a pretty tedious fighting system.”
  • atmosphere
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere is praised for its charming, humorous writing and unique gameplay that creates a distinct mood. The artificial sound design enhances this ambiance, complementing the black-and-white, noir-inspired aesthetic effectively.

    • “The writing is charming and funny, and the gameplay feels unique with lots of atmosphere.”
    • “The artificial sound contributes to the atmosphere, and I can definitely say it sounds like suits music.”
    • “Includes black and white atmosphere or noir.”
  • emotional
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the game emotionally impactful, blending horror, humor, and heartfelt moments. Many were moved to tears by the ending, highlighting its sentimental depth despite an affordable price.

    • “The game is equally horrifying and weird as it is hilarious and heartwarming.”
    • “I just beat the game and all I can say is that I cried a little at the end. Support the devs! The game costs very little.”

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game offers minimal replayability, though the initial experience is exciting and engaging despite some confusion.

    • “The replayability is near zero though, but man... what a ride... even if I had no idea what was going on half the time.”
