I'm surprised the co-op aspect of this game was not more heavily touted by Nintendo, it works great, but is strictly additive, which is truly impressive. The game is not lessen by playing single-player, but almost always better with a second player.
-
I really enjoyed the anti-capitalist goofs of this game quite a bit. The writing is not subtle, but it's still quite funny. The gameplay is fun enough and I enjoyed the soundtrack quite a bit.
-
Damn, this game rules. Pretty sure this will be a Top 10 game for me. It's fun as hell, has a great art style, ripping soundtrack, and is challenging but fair. It actually does a lot of cool things, gameplay-wise, as well. For example, every time you get a new weapon, the next section of the game will usually do a great job of letting you utilize the weapon effectively and show it off. This is not by explicit tutorial, but just organically as you play.

Really cool game in the style of a Valkyrie Profile game. Really liked the game across the board, from art & character designs to the fighting system.
-
This is probably the best game from this studio yet. I really liked the combat mechanics quite a bit. The art style and setting are both interesting. My main complaint is that the writing couldn't really deliver on the core conceit of "what if reincarnation was a real thing, but people could be trapped in our plane due to unfinished business?" The game starts out strong in this regard and is a strong mediation on grief, but it loses the plot really quickly.
-
This game is another pass of polish away from being really great. The controls are a bit too loose and the combat tries to appear complicated, but is just mashy. It's a shame because the art and creativity on display are excellent.
-
I thought this was very fun and charming for a JRPG I had not heard of before. Only took me around 20 hrs to beat, which was great (more shorter JRPGs, please!) - the game did not wear out its welcome. The character designs and art style are very Pixar-esque, there's some good music, and the battle system is simple yet fun. All the bosses are surprisingly hard, as well, and took more strategy than I was anticipating.
-
Really cool genre mashup with a fantastic art style. The last couple boss encounters are absurdly hard though, and made me take a long break from the game before coming back to finish it. There's a hidden weapon early on in the game that lets you heal, and almost seems necessary for the end game (I only found this out after a bit of searching online, I totally missed this initially).
-
Man, this game grabs you early and does not let go. It is thrilling, weird, fun, and just a great time all around. I almost passed on this game after reading how poorly the PS4 version ran, ended up playing it post-patch and it ran pretty well overall. Really glad I experienced this game, it was fantastic.
-
This games slow mo gimmick sorta wore off on me kinda quick. I did finish it, but it was just okay.
-
I had a great time playing this co-op. It's a real shame no one seems to have really played it. The grab controls can be a little finicky sometimes, but I felt like it added to the mid-2000s Sega Dreamcast-esque charm of the game. Catchy music too!
-
Hell of a game. Hard to talk about without spoiling.
-
By far the best modern take on a beat-em-up I've ever played. Tons of moves, cool bosses, fantastic music.
-
I'm consistently impressed with Image & Form's ability to tackle a completely new genre in every game they make, and do a great job with it. This game is no exception, as it is a fantastic deck-building game. I played through on the hardest difficulty, and it was a formidable but fair challenge that really made me think about my strategies.
