Awful game and one of the worst I played. It was literally impossible for me to beat it because it crashed and there was no solution except to get a game from the time, even with compatibility. Outside of that, the gameplay is awful. Every enemy is extremely tanky no matter how much you upgrade your weapons, the hitscan enemies do way too much damage, bosses and enemies that are melee have AOE attacks so it might be impossible to beat this game as the warrior, and the story is garbage. The only redeeming factors is the art design of levels looks really nice, even if it is dated for the time. And the voice acting is so horrible it is good so if you like that stuff you can enjoy it too. The third level, which is the swap, is one of the worst levels in gaming and I hope whoever designed it stubs his toe once a week. An insane amount of annoying enemies, regular enemies that take 80 hits to kill on normal difficulty, randomized poison goo all around that you can't predict or avoid while going against resurrecting enemies that are behind a horde of enemies, tentacle monsters that sprout from the ground that have no way of dodging or knowing where they are without knowledge beforehand, and an enemy that does an insane amount of damage, takes over a hundred hits, and halves your health in a single shot while teleporting around as you're getting attacked by tentacles that pop up out of nowhere. Normally I like to finish games before reviewing them but the game literally will not let me beat it because of a hard crash that has no fix or solution so I'm going to take that as a sign from God to stop playing this game.
