between us Original review We gave the game 5 out of 10 from Lollipop Chainsaw and said: “Lollipop Chainsaw doesn’t even try to separate itself from the genre, and mostly tries to find new paths into the world of its characters, and its script is ultimately from an amazing action game on paper. deviates.
