This game has an great loop, the mechanics are simple but very satisfying and it's very fun to construct a path through the underground and spend some time digging even if you're not progressing a quest.

I love all the characters and their cute voice acting -- and every single robot is voice acted.

The art style is beautiful; while I expect gorgeous art from Jack & Talha at this point (after Judero especially) Mashina has its own style that I love in a whole new way - especially the mix of 3D over-world and 2D under-world.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.

Personally I adore how the story is told in the background with the radio stations you can find.
Interface

I really liked the inventory system, where minerals are found in Tetris-style shapes that need to be slotted into your inventory, reminiscent of Resident Evil 4’s inventory system.
