Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I find myself able to put myself into the situation and imagine that I'm actually playing with these characters, and I think I would have enjoyed the fact that they respond and comment on your moves just as well when I was a child.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
On the upsides: It has better puzzle minigame(aka it has a proper jigsaw puzzle, with tons of variation, difficulty vise and jigsaw pictures themselves are way more interesting, since they use Pajama Sam games screenshots), has better memorisation mini game(as in, it's now a Vs mode of sorts, either fighting AI opponent or locally Vs player, whoever gets more memorised pairs found wins, I actually played this one a few times) and there are some new games that are neat like 4 cheeses and stones game.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It's simply too dated to recommend, with locked resolution, 4:3 pillarboxing instead of widescreen support, and the gameplay is basically what you get from free mobile apps, so the developers are charging a bizarre $5 USD for a nostalgia gouge.
