I bought this game & the 2nd Encore upgrade at 3.5$ -ish.

My experience as a "noob" fighting gamer so far is.... emmm I can say, it was interesting.

The Tutorial is great. It teach you the basic of this game such as how to block, chain attack, special attack, etc.

Although the characters variety is pretty "narrow" for a fighting game, but the characters is well balanced.

The artstyle is unique & for the music, it's well choosen too.

IMO, it's a "Newb" friendly fighting game.
Worth every penny for me.
