I'm going to break this down into categories of puzzles, voice acting, atmosphere/setting/graphics, and narrative as that's all that really makes up an adventure game.

I will warn, that if you play with "Advanced Graphics on" you'll get some graphical bugs mainly with character movements but it is nothing game breaking.
