    Astral Chain. Wow. Just wow. A little bit of a learning curve but if u stay with it you will love the battle mechanics! Very original! And exploration, architectural puzzles, light RPG elements, feels more action Zelda then Xenoblade but if you love a little bit of everything this game is a must buy. With amazing replayability!

    Overall I am having an absolute blast with this new game that Platinum created for Nintendo as one of their brand new IPs. The battling is fun and provides a different take on the action style genre game play. This is a must have game if you own a Nintendo switch

    The game is fun, looks good and action packed. It just has some areas where it slows down and isn’t fun at those sections, otherwise great game.

    Another heart pumping action game from Platinum never fails to make me excited. However, the story and characters in this one are forgettable at best.

    I love Platinum action games like Nier: Automata, Bayonetta and Metal Gear Rising. I actually feel a lot of evolution of game play from Metal Gear Rising from being able to recover health with final blows and having to "cut" through different puzzles at specific angles. Love this game, plus you can take care of and feed a cat.

    Best Platinum game

    Platinum games are known to have flashy is out there games This game is no different. In the game if you are essentially a police officer investigating different alien activities. That is where are you going to spend a big portion of your time. The next portion is fighting. Which is it strong suit. The only thing that I do not like about this game, is the Forced jumping sections in the game that doesn’t work well with jump in sections.

    If you like detective work, a crazy combat system, or are a fan of the combat system for Bayonetta, this is a great game. Astral chains bind you to your legion. Legions are specially made chimera's that are used against other chimeras. This is a really fun and different way to play the typical detective genre.

    Holy heck, take everything you love about every Platinum game and throw them in a blender and what you've got is Astral Chain. It's perhaps not as focused as Bayonetta or Devil May Cry 5 mechanically, nor does it have a story as good as Nier: Automata, but what you do have is a superb action game worthy of the Platinum name
