Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
177 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I particularly like the way that the story introduced Kayto's past with his sister and Ava.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
91 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The combat system is enjoyable and quite challenging but can be modified with a difficulty slider if you're just wanting to blaze through the story or if you want an additional challenge (and are a masochist) to top off the package.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
87 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I like the system of using the spoils of war to customise and upgrade your units, and the potential for building your fleet around a variety of playstyles.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is refreshingly quite good, and the visuals manage to do quite well given that the game is built on Ren'Py.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are pretty decent, though at times some of the proportions are off.
