Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The ability to select and replay levels after completing the story would be a welcome addition, since there is no way to go back to get a collectible you might have missed other than starting a new game, which deletes your previous save.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Cynthia: Hidden in the Moonshadow is an attractive game with nice sound and graphics, with an enjoyable story, even though it is a little short at less than three hours.
24 of 99 sampled reviews raised it
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
But it's an impressive achievement for a small team, it does what it sets out to do, and it's definitely an entertaining stealth game that's not too hard and doesn't outstay its welcome.
