I'm surprised at the amount of content in the game for a $20 price tag. The character building is fun to play with, there is an absolute ton of parts to choose from, and changing parts out can drastically change your playstyle. I'm surprised more people haven't picked this one up. I'm only about 10 hours in so far, and have defeated a few bosses, so I haven't seen everything, but I'm hoping that enemy variety opens up just a little bit more, though I wouldn't be surprised if it does, I am absolutely thrilled with what I have seen of these early parts of the levels. Very excited to see what else the game has to offer. Highly recommend

Plays like a more methodical Armored Core with a splash of Souls. Dress up your doll, cover her in the least practical weapons you can find, and go play air crash investigator in a ruined megastructure and decide which society of eccentric morons you Blame!

If youre an armored core 3 / dark souls / anime girl fan or all the above yeah sure play this game. If you can appreciate good environmental design, sure play this game. Do i recommend this game: yes BUT.... my biggest gripes are: -the balance is pretty bad in this game in the sense that you dont feel incentivized to try anything new especially because the BP meter and how costly weapons are to fire. -This games not very optomized well and god forbid theres alot of particles on screen youre going to see some FPS slowdown -This game is easy... like unbearably easy. any time i died I died because i was being stupid. There was 1 boss fight that I had to do a couple of resets on (and pvp specifically going up against another doll in game) is highly unbalanced. -That ending fight was so damn dissapointing. There are fights in the middle/end of the game that are harder than that. Ill give the devs credit as they went from making visual novels to this.... but some mid is still some mid.

I played alot more on steam deck offline mode so dont be fooled by my playtime. For as large as the game is for the price they're offering, most of my complaints about "not enough enemy variety can be ignored" The different biomes each have their own Maze-like structures that have you navigating the landscape in different ways, and biomes unique enemies have you experimenting with different weapon combinations. Overall a good game, dont expect anything on the level of Armored Core, but its good for what it is and what is costs.

Be advised, you must be a degree of a J-jank enjoyer for this game. It is a labor of love from a pretty small team, and for sure it is flawed in many ways. For me it just came together in the right way. If you're going in expecting Armored Core with anime girls, you'll probably be somewhat disappointed. What made the game shine for me was that it doesn't shy away from mystery and tickling the player's imagination. The game encourages you to quite freely explore its environments of massive, mostly abandoned megastructures and meeting its odd denizens without a talking head loredumping everything to you or mission briefings herding you to the next objective. It's all about showing not too much and telling even less instead of the more common practice of treating the player like a toddler who must be sat on the booster chair and carefully spoon fed mashed together stale goop. Even with the dated graphics the environment design is generally excellent. You are an ant scurrying around gigantic, ancient structures, trying to piece together from sparse clues what it's all about. Even as I spent quite a bit of time exploring around on my first playthrough there are still unanswered questions I think a second run with somewhat different choices made will help to answer. Overall it took me 33 hours to complete, with pretty generous amount of time spent exploring (and getting lost). The general combat design is solid although strongly favoring mobility over all else, as even rank and file enemies can put out a lot of damage which makes face tanking scarcely viable. There are no i-frame dodges here so you ain't rolling your way out of this one. I got killed far more often by being careless with normal enemy encounters, than by bosses themselves. Some combat mechanics could use some rethinking, especially the throwables which are not intuitive at all to use and so I very rarely resorted to them aside from the smoke grenade, which is thankfully quite effective against enemies including bosses. The status effect system could have seen more use too, they are rarely a concern at all unless you are particularly bad at dodging. Fights against other frames were definitely the highlights, and I wish there would have been more of those, especially fighting multiple at once. Performance wise the game launched in a rough shape but after the recent patches it's run smoothly and without crashes. Getting a stable 60fps with 5700x3D and 4070 at 1440p. Overall it's a flawed gem, but I found it very charming and well worth the money. I will certainly return to it for a NG+, and hope for a sequel.
