The positive aspects are quick to describe: the graphics and animations are great, most of the music tracks are really good, the sound effects are average, and the controls work well enough.

The sound design is equally restrained, with atmospheric music that complements the visual austerity.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
6 of 231 sampled reviews raised it
Worked really well on steamdeck with only a few screens that had frame drops (once again the developer is looking into it) The fact that we get a full nonogram release as a bonus to the main game is icing on the cake.
