when you first pick it up, it feels like a normal side-scrolling beat em up. But then you get special powers that need to be used in order to beat diffrent opponents. Like, at the end of the first level, yo u have to take on a giant helecopter. This is nearly impossible to do if you don't use the slow-mo power, witch causes the propellors to slow to a stop and the chopper to fall to the ground, allowing you to beat it up.

Theres also special ways to avoid opponents' attacks by pressing up or down at the right time, witch allows you to make the opponent dizzy and allows you to do some crazy combo stuff.

Then theres the most annoying part of the game, the puzzle aspect. Some bossest have patterns and untill you figure out what to do in order to beat them, your pretty much screwed.

But all and all its definitly a good game, but you should rent it first before shelling out the $50 for it.
