105 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay - 8 (easy to understand and enjoyable but nothing that breaks the mold)
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
70 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game is just a joy to play and offered a new experience for this 40yr old JRPG fan and I expect it to be nominated for best sound design this year.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Very fun and charming musical RPG, took about 20 hours to do everything and beat the game on the highest difficulty so I'd say it's worth it.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As well as the art style (which is wonderful, but especially the 2D sprites during cutscenes) being along the same kind of style, the overarching plot has a kind of hybrid of a Disney movie and a JRPG, with a girl with a dream somehow ending up in a plot that's way over her head, with ups and downs of her not knowing if she can do it.
