Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
While in most RPGs, wizards are weak early but strong late, in Lords of Xulima a mage is one of your best characters during levels 5-20, but by the endgame has been reduced to a supporting role.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The game features a world map gameplay similar to that of Heroes of Might and Magic and King's Bounty, but has a combat mechanic that is more akin to the Might and Magic series with certain areas of the game being blocked off by monsters until you're powerful enough to defeat them or find a way around them.

Audio

often the proper voice can make or break a game, but they pretty much nailed it here the narrator and the voice of god sound very appropriate and usually are dipping with dramatic feel to it.
