One thing about the game was that it was so refreshing not knowing beforehand anything about the game, I could just focus on playing the game thus exploring my knowledge about the droid as well as learning about the surroundings and what impact they had on main the story and the character and the challenges we faced, that's how immersive and engaging the game can be.

Being a puzzle game at its core, i'd say it's difficulty and logic can mind-numbing even for a second playthrough.
