The combat system is fun, the exploration elements are fun, graphics are great, and music (when present) is also really nice.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
10 of 54 sampled reviews raised it
It had great graphics for the time, a typical punishing trial-and-error difficulty, and could be completed in about 10-15 minutes if you knew what you were doing.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
10 of 54 sampled reviews raised it
That extends to the combat as well, were hits feel satisfyingly hard and it finds a few ways to expand on the whip's (well chain in this game) hooking abilities.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
6 of 54 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack stood out—foreboding yet filled with a strong sense of adventure.
