The maze design for each stage is well-crafted and some with interesting mechanics, for example, the Haunted Manor has a shifting maze mechanic while the Black Market has a timed mechanic.
Story

34 of 277 sampled reviews raised it
In this regard, it’s kinda like Professor Layton titles, except the story doesn’t even attempt to take itself too seriously and focuses on just being fun and evoking the feeling of adventure.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

I think fans of the book will have no complaints with how the graphics turned out as it seems pretty faithful to the source material.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
19 of 277 sampled reviews raised it
Discussing the positives, first of all, the game itself looks very well with a fine soundtrack as we try to figure out which path we should pick up to reach the objective, making it somewhat of a relaxing experience as it does not take too much time to pass each level.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
15 of 277 sampled reviews raised it
The controls are responsive, objectives are easy to understand, and the overall difficulty remains approachable throughout the adventure.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
7 of 277 sampled reviews raised it
You can still navigate with keyboard and mouse since it’s only maze but you will definitely want to use a controller instead.
