Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
80 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is pretty nice, the characters are quite likeable, but most of all, you get to experience non-euclidean geometries (especially hyperbolic).
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you want an endless slog through NPC interaction after NPC interaction with way too much meme-culture "trying way too hard (but miserably failing)" dialogue, about 10 minutes of actual entertaining "game play," and some mildly cool but also mildly nauseating graphics - this might be your game.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is quite nice too, it is pretty chill and doesn't get in the way of the visual experience (which is the most important in this game, I guess).
