Backs Kind of game, Split or shared screen, Working in sync, Story, Jumping and climbing, Unlocks and progress, Planning ahead, Fighting.

• Kind of game: Review of 2020-08-30. The reviewer played the whole game in co-op with a sister, and the two heroes fight on the same side.
• Split or shared screen: Calls the camera fixed and low, which makes co-op very difficult to play.
• Working in sync: One boss splits the heroes into two rooms and is easier and more fun with a friend. Another boss was almost impossible in co-op.
• Story: Says the story has a lot of heart and does not take itself too seriously.
• Jumping and climbing: Says every boss except the first and last is preceded by a short platforming stage.
• Unlocks and progress: Fans buy skills from a skill tree, while mods and stickers change what the heroes can do.
• Planning ahead: Mods and stickers are placed on the instruments, and you need all the systems to stand a chance against the bosses.
