Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I’m honestly fine with linear gameplay or the absence of story or music in a puzzle game, but if the puzzles aren't challenging, it simply doesn't get a recommendation from me based solely on having okay visuals.
72 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
For a pure puzzle game, where boxes wins on visuals, it loses on actual puzzles.
70 of 300 sampled reviews raised it

• Difficulty Level: Normal (Sometimes easy, sometimes a little hard)
60 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
While intriguing, the story remains secondary to the gameplay, serving more as an emotional and thematic backdrop than as the driving force.

The sound design is great and the general atmosphere works well.
