Super Win The Game is a title I have had in my steam library for many years, but it is only until now (at the time of writing this) that I finally got around to playing it.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack - while good, it does get repetitive, especially when you are having to hunt every corner of the map for the next trigger to open up the next part of the game

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
It came in a SNES box, with a SNES controller, a cloth map, 3D glasses, guide book, stickers, and a USB card that looks like a SNES cart.

Linux compatibility
Players who bring up Linux compatibility mostly praise it.
I think this might well be the only Linux game that has "action safe" and "title safe" design (google it).
