Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
133 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Good enough story and cartoony graphics, characters were varied enough in personality, controls were simple (only directions and one action button).
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
76 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics and character interactions are both different but refreshing and definitely welcome!
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
56 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Dyscourse is a wonderfully unique little game, with gameplay somewhere between a "Choices Matter" consequences game and a CYOA/Visual Novel with storyline branching, character affinity, and multiple endings.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack does the heavy lifting for atmosphere too — not iconic, but definitely pleasant and fitting.
