Star-Lord at the head of an unmanageable crew, barreling from one explosion to the next with fingers crossed.

On very few votes per criterion, so to be confirmed, the profile shows a big gap. The art style peaks, ahead of nearly nine games out of ten: by far its finest line, that punchy Marvel visual identity. The wish to rediscover it stays decent, just above average. But the rest falls back: the game you would take to a desert island drops below average, and the soundtrack slides even lower, ahead of only three games out of ten. There is the tension: it dazzles, but it does not become the companion you keep, and its OST, despite its advertised hits, fails to assert itself in these first votes.

Among narrative action-adventures, it is a fine character spectacle, carried by writing and looks more than by the urge to come back again and again.

So, who is it for? For you if you want a flamboyant, funny space opera to devour once. Much less if you are after the game you take everywhere or the soundtrack that squats in your playlist.
