    A few flaws

    This will be a spoiler free review. Starting with the packaging itself, the contamination edition comes with a little art book that shows the design of the characters and world. It also comes with a digital soundtrack that can be redeem online. As far as first day edition goes, this is solid but not something you would be missing out. There is no special packaging or anything that would stand out from the standard. Going into the game itself, the controls are a bit wonky. For example, too lock on to a monster, you would press B or so the game states but it would only work less than half the time or when you're a good angle to do so. This could be me but I tried multiple times but still couldn't get it to work. This is a shooter based RPG, with the shooter lacking. It has to be precise, even with one centimeter, you would not hit the monster. This is the most irritating thing about the game, with the monsters moving around, it is hard to hit them and on top of that, it has to be precise. If not, the monster ends up killing you up to three hits. Which is another thing that hurts the game, with a few hits you are already dead. There is a dodging feature in which you have to roll, but with the bad camera angle, the other monster could get you from a blind spot. The other thing is that hurts the game is the bullet system. You could get up to ten bullets to attack the monsters. Once it is gone, you are stuck either waiting or running around to pick up posion that restores health and bullets but the poison is limited. Another thing I realized that even offline, when fighting the bosses, the game lags. This shouldn't be happening, especially when it is offline. With the large boss and multiple enemies, it too much for the game to handle which causes lag. Aside from those details, the story is enough to keep you engaged. Especially when visitng each level. Some level design could get annoying due to the layout and strong colors they apply but it could be easily overlooked. My personally favorite about the game is the music. The music fits perfectly from the title screen to the levels. The soundtrack to this game hits well. Overall, this game is good but could have been better had it been better flush out. It is fun but it has it moments that due to the game features will cause irritation. I would recommend getting this game either when it is on sale or clearance.

    I'm having fun with this game its really good and I laugh at some of it moments. Honestly only get the switch version if you like to play this game on the go and don't mind the loading times.

    Insulting to ask for $50. Here are some of many issues. The game always struggles to load and consistently has frame rate issues. Sometimes guns just won’t shot when the frame rate drops low. Inconsistent hit detection on the bullets. Has a clunky dodge roll that makes you stay in place after. Some guns make you stand in place to shot which would be fine if they were balanced, which they are not. This is not a good game. Interesting ideas that are implemented poorly.

    This game is a combination of third person shooter rpg n visual novel IMO. Game play is some what unique but does get repetitive. I had fun with this game.

    Interesting characters, kind of a mash up of splatoon and a first person dungeons crawler. Niche game. If this speaks to you then you'll dig it

    Played and beat this game. Excellent fun shooter/action adventure game. Game has stylish menus and interesting characters! Switch version has some minor slowdown on busy areas, otherwise plays great! Love to see these experimental games still coming out with different ideas!

    This game is average. I played it couple of times and never went back. I don't think it has lots of replayability if you ever complete the game that is. Maybe some day I'll go back and beat it but i just don't get any charm from it.

    I commend NISA for releasing this sort of game, that are not quite up to par from a gameplay perspective, but they sometimes can offer a different experience.
