Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
56 of 210 sampled reviews raised it
Over time, players learn to plan their workflow more efficiently, grouping similar preparations together and minimizing wasted steps, which gives a strong sense of growth not just in character progression but in player understanding.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
36 of 210 sampled reviews raised it
However, the graphics and animations are really lovely, and the story did a couple of things I didn't expect, like having branching options in one of the quest-lines (more of this would be awesome!)
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
20 of 210 sampled reviews raised it
After you make the potion, deliver them to the assistance by clicking the Right Mouse Button (used the LMB a few times myself by mistake.) The objects and ingredients have a dark stroke and a sort of cell shading effect, are easy to distinguish from each other and look good, but the workshop itself looks a bit generic with the usual stacks of books and basic stone and wood textures on the walls.
