Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Actually, the game is very relaxing and I kinda like it because of the art style, gameplay and the pace of it and I want to recommend it, say that I like this game... but I'm not sure I really want to continue playing it, because it's just in an unfinished state and confusing.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
While sound effects play regularly, the actual music will play for a short time and then stop.
