Review:
– It took a bit to get used to this one. You unlock wrestling moves to get around; that’s cool. It’s nice to throw everyone around, but it can get a little old after a while?
–I was excited to save his friend, but found getting the “real” ending to be quite an ordeal! I got it eventually. Will have to try the sequel some day
–What if Juan met Nacho Libre?
–You also switch between the light and the dark world; I think it’d’ve been fine without this, but what can you do
