Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Mostly the story carries a happy tone with a funny way of looking at things, there are some emotion heavy scenes also which address the main character's life events peppered throughout the game but they do not break the general mood.

I understand the soundtrack is also good but I usually play without so I can't comment on that.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
For seasoned point-and-click fans, it might feel a bit too easy, but it’s a great entry point for newcomers to the genre.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
- Gameplay: everything you want from a modern point & click is there, inventory is handled nicely, you have practically infinite manual save slots, it also autosaves frequently, there are no practically no bugs (I found a couple that were the "blink and you'll miss it" kind, and I was very thorough exploring the world).

As you progress, the story and the gameplay reward you for your time exploring and interacting with the world and characters.
