Iconoclasts is really a hidden gem.
The story was pretty solid, especially for a game, and left me with so many questions. My main complaint with it though is that it kind of goes all over the place, and its end is so different from its beginning. 8/10

The gameplay is pretty good, but it doesn't have huge amounts of depth. The puzzles aren't particularly amazing, and the combat has some really impressive moments (mainly the boss fights) but mostly isn't really special. 7/10

The presentation was good, but it never really blew me away. Honestly, that's all I have to say about that part of Iconoclasts. 7/10

The characters, however, are absolutely amazing. My personal favorite characters were Agent Black and Royal, but honestly nearly the entire cast is interesting. There are multiple character arcs, and none of them left me bored! I will admit though that I didn't really care all that much about Robin, the protagonist; the game was already pretty story-focused, so I think some dialogue from the protagonist would have definitely improved my opinion of her. 9/10

Overall, I think Iconoclasts is a solid 8/10 game that you should definitely play if you want something that will keep you invested in its story and characters. Just be aware that while the gameplay and presentation are still solid enough, they are definitely not the highlight of the game.
