- “Besides the voice acting and story, this game is amazing!”

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying the fun mechanics and variety of powers, while others find the combat clunky and the overall experience repetitive due to a lack of objectives.

- “The combat mechanics are clunky and unreliable; once you unlock all the powers and explore the city, there isn't much else to do that feels worth it.”
