Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Lost Chronicles of Zerzura is an old school point and click (some of you might remember this genre as "quest") adventure that utilizes intuitive and yet interesting puzzles compared to plenty of games in this category.
50 of 71 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The character animations are fairly clunky at times with jarring walk/run animations and some oddly paced cut-scenes (ex. two characters having a sword fight loses some excitment when the swords clearly phase through eachother at odd movement speeds) The voice acting is pretty good with a surprising amount of decently written dialog.

+ gorgeous looking and detailed pre rendered background graphics.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
I'm sure the case could be made that some are too easy compared to other point and clicks but I found it refreshing that most of them actually made sense.
