Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
jumping in, it's like the story started somewhere in the middle of the storyline. couldn't understand a single thing everybody was talking about. plot thickens too quickly and jumpscares are pretty cheap (would let this one slide). was also buggy and crashes a lot that i thought it was part of the game.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
+/- the game plays well,sounds good and the graphics are good (its a visual novel...) but when you close the game and open it again all your options and everything you had in the extras menu will be reset your saves will be there nothing will happen to them but the extras you earned and your settings will be reset

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The artworks are very good, the character design is pleasing, and the sound design plays a great role in conveying the atmosphere, between spooky sound effects and the adorable voices of the Chompettes.
