This game is action platformer with RPG elements and perm-death but with progression shared among characters. The game focuses on the gameplay, not so much on the story. Game is pretty fun and addictive but it's quite hard and can be very frustrating because you'll be dying very fast over and over again. I would recommend this game for anyone who likes challenging but fun games because it's pretty damn good. If you however get frustrated fast or aren't very good with platformers you might want to pass on this one.
