The verdict
A charming, fast 2D side-scrolling MOBA with great characters and music, but a tiny playerbase, no skill-based matchmaking and toxic veterans make it rough for newcomers at $20.
Great for
Nostalgic returning fans and friend groups who want quick, cartoony 2D MOBA matches
Main risk
Few players and no skill-based matchmaking mean new players get stomped by veterans.
