But for me, the gameplay and atmosphere felt more rewarding in that game.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
138 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The next hour was better again, because of the opportunity to mostly ignore hauling jobs and focus on the story.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
So overall, the visuals and sound design were solid and moved the game forward.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The music is stellar, the soundtrack has many bops but also quite a few emotional tracks that added to events throughout the game.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It lacks the polish of most competent indie games nowadays, having weird visual bugs, clunky controls, weird controller button mapping, and no cross save support, even though this is such a perfect Steam Deck game.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's got cooking, it's got character customization, it's got romanceable crew members, what more do you want?
