Not my kind of game mechanically, but still had fun with it's goofy story and presentation (on Easy)

Just finished this game, clocking in around 15 hours total. Much longer than some other reviews would have me believe it would have taken me. Maybe I just like to go slower than most?

I'm still thinking about what I just experienced. Not really sure what was going on, or what happened at the end, but it was a lot of fun, and some real frustration, in getting to the end.

Let me just say I never liked these kind of games where you have to memorize combos of button pushes and movements to trigger different fighting moves. Ugh - I hate that!

So I was very happy that after playing 1/3 of the game on the Normal difficulty and hitting a brick wall, that it let me switch to Easy difficulty instead instead of restarting from the beginning. Much better for me. (And there was even another Very Easy mode if required too).

So at least I was able to finish the game, and enjoy myself while doing so.

And what a game it is! I didn't follow the story, but it managed to sweep me up all the same, and it was hard to stop playing because you kept wanting to find out what happened next.

In Summary - definitely worth playing, lots of fun, and thankfully a variable difficulty setting so even I could see the end too.
