Gameplay

98 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It feels like very natural exploration - nothing is told to you in a fourth wall-breaking way, you can piece together lore and discover new things through immersion in conversation and your wanderings.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art style is breath taking, so much so, you yearn for more to discover.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The `story ́, though not that long- it ́s ok for EA- is engaging and was interesting to work my way through, solving riddles like where to find a person from a vague description you get somewhere.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The atmosphere, visuals and soundtrack of this game are lovely, and it really makes you feel like you're embarking on an otherworldly journey in an oriental-inspired setting.
