Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
79 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
That gives the game a really nice sense of progression because I am not simply solving the same type of puzzle over and over.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The narrative maintains a light and quirky personality rather than overwhelming the puzzles with excessive exposition, and the theme of rebuilding fits naturally with a game where virtually everything revolves around putting pieces back together.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It displays appropriate controller icons, its interface text is considered legible on the handheld screen, and the default graphics configuration performs properly on the device.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I think that the puzzles follow a nice difficulty curve from trivial to hard, but I’ve seen two complaints about this.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I like to think I'm pretty good at puzzles, but a few of these were a bit more than I could handle - and the walkthrough guide in the menu is absolutely amazing to help me to get back on track!
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
5 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gamepad support is nice to have; menus feel a bit awkward to navigate, though.
