Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
114 of 290 sampled reviews raised it
I really liked the game's writing, world building, visual style, sound design, and use of over-the-top characters and situations to examine 'tricky ideas'.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
33 of 290 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics and art are amazing throughout the game and really give you the Australian vibe especially with the wildlife running around, the red sands and rusty tin shed towns and buildings.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
27 of 290 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting is great and the dialog is also well thought of and very Australian if maybe over the top which I think is very intentional.
