Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Many people said graphics and gameplay mechanics were broken/not enjoyable; and while there isn't a ton there, what is there works great.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
If you enjoy puzzle games, the gameplay is really good on the first playthrough, when you don't know how to solve all of the puzzles yet, and you don't know what's going to happen, but once you know everything that's going to happen, the game isn't as fun.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
I loaded up this game with as few spoilers/previews as I could (barring the OST) and went into it with great hope.
