This game was so much fun. Gameplay wise, the game is easy to learn and greatly encourages experimentation. You're given free reign to rewind turns and see how events play out before you solidify your choices. This can make the game fairly easy (I primarily played the game on normal difficulty), but the game does offer other difficulties in case you prefer something easier or harder. You can even make your own custom difficulty and choose what resources you're limited to and how challenging the enemies are. You're given a large repertoire of abilities to play with by the end of the game where the real challenge is coming up with the best (or, really, what you think is best) way of clearing a room. If you like turn based strategy games (or puzzle games, even), you may like this one.

Story was fun - nothing too complicated, but I loved the writing and enjoyed each of the characters. The game understands that its concept is both absolutely ridiculous yet incredibly cool and rolls with it. While I'm sure the humor may not be for everyone, I enjoyed the various jokes and punchlines enough to play through the entire story twice just to see the character interactions again. The game does know when to keep things serious when it needs to and I found the intense moments created near the latter half of the game very intriguing.

Presentation is alright. I love the art design, though cutscenes are fairly static. I didn't mind it as much, but I'm sure someone may be put off by how little characters move during cutscenes (granted, some of the still poses they use are pretty funny). During gameplay, though, the effects are fun to watch, yet it isn't so overwhelming that it's difficult to see what's going on. Your characters are easily distinguishable and the environments for the maps are visually distinct and interesting, with the second half of the game having some of my favorite maps.

Overall, a very fun game. Happy enough with it to have gotten every achievement (not that it's that difficult compared to most other games on Steam). Highly recommend picking it up.
