People like to call this game a kicking simulator, but they don't realize the potential that kicking truly has. You can kick enemies off a cliff or down a flight of stairs. You can kick a barrel into an enemy to knock them down and open them up to a melee instant kill attack. Even beyond the kicking you can play with the physics in a lot of fun ways like cutting the rope on a chandelier and turning it into a wrecking ball, or casting an ice spell on the ground to make enemies slip and ragdoll all over the place. The game does struggle with boss fights and larger combat encounters, but the good parts really outweigh those. I will say the game was really unstable on my PC, but I don't know if that's just a side effect of trying to run it on modern hardware or if it was always prone to crashing.
