In the end, as with all beat-em-ups, audiences are going to polarised into three camps. There’s those who don’t like beat-em-ups full stop and see them as pointless button mash-fests. There’s those of us who like them, but tend to get bored fairly quickly with no story or compelling unlockables to keep us playing. Finally, there’s those who love all beat-em-ups for the complex strategies they can weave with the gameplay, the skill of learning all the timings and moves, and through this the way they can dominate their enemies.

Honestly though, all three parties are catered too with Facebreaker. Ostensibly, it is just a button mash-fest and can all the unlockable stuff can be had within a good few hours of play. As we mentioned before too, there’s a surprising amount of depth to the combat if you want to study it and the average battle goes on long enough for that strategy to be important.
