Honestly, better than I thought. The main problem is the battle system. It's an improvement over SS, easily, but it still lacks any depth. The rest of the game is pretty solid. Great level design, humour, it's not void of new and interesting gameplay formulas... It'd be probably in the level of the first games, if it just kept a similar combat system. Still, if you enjoy a fun and chilling adventure, and you don't mind a lot the obvious combat system flaws, this game is for you. It's really charming. It could do with less Toad overload though xD
I'd probably give it a 7'5/10. Bloody combat system, the game had potential to be a personal GOTY.
