If you're going to play this game, do yourself a favor and only play on Normal or lower. Hard and Extreme are too hard. I like the improved camera angle they implemented for Subsistence, much better than Snake Eater's.

I think the most noteworthy part of this game is how you can talk to almost any NPC in the game, and they will give you some useful item, or money. This is not at all how real life works, which is why I like it so much. Another interesting concept is doing a No Sphere Grid run, which adds an extra challenge and further replay value to the game.

You won't like this game if you prefer boring, easy games. A Puzzle of Flesh is definitely a good game, but it doesn't hold your hand at all. You'll have to just try everything, in the game, to make progress.
