Humanity has been destroyed - and it's up to Gori, along with his deadly but wise-cracking sentient hoverboard, F.R.A.N.K, and morose AI companion, CH1-P, to shred and slay the evil Adorable Army!
Players take control of Gori, a deadly yet adorable cat, who wields a sentient hoverboard, F.R.A.N.K, as his primary weapon. The combat system allows players to perform a wide range of attacks, combos, and acrobatic maneuvers, such as power sliding, grinding, and spinning, to deliver devastating blows to the "Adorable Army" of mutated toys. Reviewers consistently praise the combat, describing it as "incredibly satisfying" and "immensely enjoyable," highlighting the game's ability to deliver a true "hack-and-slash" experience.
The game's levels present players with a variety of twisted and visually striking environments, ranging from neon-drenched city streets to toy factories awash with deadly toxins. These settings introduce numerous environmental hazards and platforming challenges that test the players' skills. Reviewers highlight the level design as a strength, noting the "variation in the fighting" and the "lethal environmental hazards" that add to the overall challenge and exploration experience.
The game offers a robust system for character customization, allowing players to unlock and equip a wide range of outfits, fur styles, and visual filters for Gori. Reviewers appreciate this level of personalization, with one player stating that they "love the customization" and the ability to "turn the town red with F.R.A.N.K's blades." The progression system also enables players to unlock new moves and abilities to expand their combat repertoire.
While the game's primary focus is on its high-octane, gory combat, reviewers praise the narrative and humor. The story, which revolves around Gori and his unlikely companions, F.R.A.N.K and CH1-P, taking on the "Adorable Army," is described as "engaging" and "packed with heart and adult humor." Reviewers highlight the game's ability to balance its over-the-top violence with a surprisingly endearing cast of characters.
