45 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But it was still a great little indie game with a fresh take on puzzle design, great atmosphere/music/visuals, and overall well worth the $20 price tag.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Just the right amount of difficulty in the puzzles, I was able to complete the game without taking any notes.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As a final point, the music is nice enough, but selling this with an OST for almost double cost feels like a bit of a cash grab.
