Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
If you've played their previous games, you know what to expect - some good puzzles that are representative of real-world escape room puzzles (so, not too difficult, but also not too easy) plus a hint system for when you get stuck.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Ancient tomes, glowing runes, enchanted furniture, alchemical devices, and magical lighting all contribute heavily to the immersive feeling of exploring a wizard academy.

Gameplay
