Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Shop progression & upgrades are solid; there's a couple of upgrades I didn't care for, but nothing that ever ruined the game.
57 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The sound design is fantastic as well; the music, sound effects, and to a degree voice clips as well all were high quality and massively contributed to the worldbuilding in ways the visuals could not; not to say the visuals didn't add to worldbuilding because they totally did with what they are in this style.
