I backed this on KS and received my PS4 code on Friday.
The basic premise is that you build up a huge team of people while running, dashing and double-jumping around the stages while knocking seven bells out of the numerous enemies. And the game is by Platinum, so get ready for c-c-c-combos.
The team is generally comprised of superheroes but you can Jehova's Witness dazed citizens into joining your cult-I mean-superhero team.
The team can link together to form weapons(e.g. a giant sword for attacking) and other objects(e.g. a bridge to cross a large gap). You form these objects by drawing symbols with the right stick or, just like the Wii-U, drawing on the DS4's touchpad. Speaking of which, Platinum have done a wonderful job with the touchpad. The touchpad is much smaller than the Wii-U gamepad's screen so drawing has to be a little more precise, but the touchpad is capacitive so it doesn't need any pressure to draw. When things gets hectic, drawing with my thumb is a bit quicker than using the Wii-U gamepad. Accuracy is an issue but I prefer it to the right stick.
The touchpad also handles a smaller, secondary screen which has a map and lets you do other cool stuff. It was originally displayed on the Wii-U gamepad but could also be overlaid on the main screen. Click to show/hide it; drag to move it around; pinch to change the size. You can also have main and secondary screens side-by-side on your telly. Double-clicking the touchpad will pause the game and let you adjust that secondary screen using the sticks instead of the touchpad.
The game has English/Japanese voices and a bunch of languages for display/subtitles. It even lets you choose US English or real English.
WONDER-RED!
