A difficult game to truly enjoy.
This review is for the Xbox One version

It does manage to simulate that feeling of a ponderous, repetitive crappy job thanks to its grindy nature, questionable furniture placement, and not-quite-permadeath respawn system. The variety of goofy ghosts to bust and beefy amount of levels are the high points and for a cheap thrill, you could do worse—or a lot better.

Died and lost progress due to permadeath design. Don't feel like re-starting.
