Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
At the time of writing Call of the Starseed is probably one of the most graphically appealing vive reality games out, if you want to experience a nice looking game, this is your best bet, but don't expect the earth.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The voice acting from the only other visible character is acceptable, but the dialogue isn't well written and, again, has no substance.

Not only was it fun to play and explore, but the story is very interesting and the puzzles are very well made with a moderate difficulty.
