When I bought "Highlands" over a year ago, the beautiful art style had me sold on the idea, but I only started playing it this week for the first time.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
But aside of its beautiful soundtrack and visual style, as well as challenging gameplay if one should chose - with those being well balanced by the available mechanics - this wouldn't be a review without mentioning the bad sides of the game.
