It was harder than I expected, but I appreciated how each area felt like an exploration of the different facets of grief and how the card mechanics tied into these themes during combat.

The main story is captivating and moving, as it follows a mother's struggle with losing a loved one.
Difficulty

I also feel its worth to mention (no spoilers) that the last boss is just perfect in terms of difficulty and theme in my opinion.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.

But, the backbone of the game definitely is its combat system: Through the 4 realms you have to discover various strategies and synergies, learn pattern of opponents and have to deal with the terrain.
Graphics

It feels more *visuallly* polished than it might look in it's pixel-art style.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Likewise the soundtrack complements the experience thoroughly, also employing minimalism while maintaining a super unique character with the use of some really primitive instruments in combination with otherworldly and... biological... sounds.
