10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game consistently balances comedy with moments of surprisingly honest character exploration, which helps the experience feel emotionally engaging rather than simply random.

8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combined with the colorful visuals and expressive writing, the soundtrack helps maintain a strong emotional atmosphere throughout the experience.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
6 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Although I am a little sad there's no mention of the ancestors (it makes sense for them not to be, I'm just obsessed with them) This storyline was so good, not to mention the graphics and artwork were just so shockingly amazing.
