Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It offers an open world for players to explore, tries to add a replayability factor by introducing unlockables as well as power-ups, and combines these with charming puzzle platforming sections.
56 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Despite being from 2015, the game runs surprisingly well on older machines, like the 32-bit Windows Vista Home Premium desktop PC with an Intel Core 2 CPU, 3070 MB RAM, DirectX 11, & a GeForce 9500 GT graphics card that I used.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
When played purely for story and end-goal it'll clock in at around 3 hours play time, and while replay value is limited, completionists and explorers can expect more than 10 hours and achievement hunters (there are some pretty good achievements and one pretty annoying and very difficult one) can expect even more.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Switching between a gamepad and they traditional keyboard and mouse combination was also flawless.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack takes clear inspiration from ambient music, with a light collage of electronic sounds accompanying you through all parts of the world.

Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
I played this game entirely on the Steam Deck, and I’m happy to report it worked pretty much perfectly out of the box, likely achieving a Verified status when Valve gets around to it.
