Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
It has many features that alleviate any of the old-school point & click games annoyances, and many cool (yet not unheard of) gameplay mechanics (like how events in the past change future events, playing with multiple characters and exchanging items between them, asking for in-game hints, etc) that also elevate it from most generic games of this kind.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Voice-acting is phenomenal; soundtrack is catchy; graphics are really good; characters are likable and fun; every scene looks great and is also very well put-together gameplay-wise; puzzles are relatively easy, with a few a-ha!

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The voice acting brings each character to life with enthusiasm, helping jokes land and giving emotional beats more weight than expected from such a lighthearted premise.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Many lines poke fun at adventure game conventions — from inventory absurdities to contrived puzzle logic — and yet the humor never feels mean-spirited toward the genre.
