If you're a fan of hack-em-ups like castle crashers and kick ass punk: this is the game for you. I remember playing back on the 360 and this being one of my favorite games, and it's held up pretty damn well since then.

One of the best games I've ever played. When i was little and this first came out on the Xbox and i fully played it through without stopping. 10/10 would recommend to anyone that loves a story rich game.

This game is just as enjoyable now as when I first played it on the Xbox 360. It has great replay ability and is genuinely a great side-scrolling beat 'em up. I highly recommend it!

I have been playing this game since it first released on the xbox 360 and got it for free on a free games for gold day. This is one of the games that has stuck with me the rest of my life and will forever be, hands down and by a long shot, T H E best indie game I have ever played. Everyone always talks about a second game but honestly even just a rerelease of some kind for the Xbox X would be in itself a gift sent from the devs.

my dad had this game on the 360, had to be when we first got it, i think i was around 6 or 7. we had the 360 in the living room and i was horrified of blood and gore as a kid, so i wouldnt come out of my room until he was done. im about to turn 18 in a few days now, and ive done a 180. my dads favorite games were always shooters, i was horrified of them. theyre my favorite type of game now (though i prefer older ones) and i can appreciate a good bit of blood and viscera! that being said, yeah, game is awesome. i dont know what my dad saw in it, since its totally not his style, artistically and gameplay wise. its totally mine on the other hand, ill play any game i can get my hands on, i love punk music and fashion, and artstyles like the one in this game. its so raw and, like, kind of ugly? i love those types of art styles. its a game that reeks of 2000s, style, brutality, and you can absolutely tell it had its home on the xbox arcade at some point. really fun and solid experience, definitely recommend whether you have nostalgia for it or not.
