Review
A full review is available in episode 231 (1:15:20) of the Couch Company Podcast:
✅ Pros
Boomer-shooter gameplay is solid and fun.
Character designs and cartoon art style look great.
Troy Baker’s voice acting is a standout.
❌ Cons
3D movement clashes with the 2D hand-drawn art style.
The variety of weapons feels shallow.
The “detective” story is too linear to feel like solving a mystery.
Boss fights are repetitive and uninspired.
Cartoon charm and Doom-style violence clash tonally.
Final Score: 75 (Bronze)
