From a story and atmosphere perspective it's great - I can tell lots of love went into this game, but in terms of how much I enjoyed playing it, I can't say there were many moments I had fun with it.

I find it that they made a good job with the OST.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.

The controls are brilliant – at least on the gamepad – Yarny moves smoothly, the puzzles are logical, and even if you might find yourself tearing your hair out at times, you quickly realise that the solution is often quite simple, without being silly.
