As a Genesis Columns fan it was really fun jumping into this game which has new garbage combat mechanics. However, the game just feels pretty sluggish and the sound design is extremely lacking (not the music tho, love that early 2000s Dreamcast noise).

Played a for a bit but after two hours me and my friend wanted to go back to the original games for the crispness that Hanagumi Taisen Columns 2 Lacked.
