Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
50 of 162 sampled reviews raised it
Pros: Solid Narrative, Good puzzle mechanics (pretty easy but I assume this is for a young target audience), good environmental art, paced very well (short and sweet, nothing overstays it's welcome or tries to bloat your playtime.), traversal puzzles are forgiving if you fail.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
39 of 162 sampled reviews raised it
Story is very good in a poetic way, voice acting is good with nice emotion.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
21 of 162 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics in this game are really quite good, which at least makes the game look more appealing.
