Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
In short: This is a lovely game with cute art, a solid core gameplay loop and a surprising amount of depth.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
The fourth and final map was a bit of a let-down to me as it was just too easy - too much space, ample production bonuses, too many overpowered upgrades.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The quest dialogue is well written.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.
Actually worth your time, no traps like micro-transactions, and well polished.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
As with most games of this genre, controls are simple point-and-click, although judging by visuals and the all-round polish of the underlying mechanics, it is certainly a great example of what the franchise can be.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The sound effects are good, but the music is a bit mediocre and repetitive.
