Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The game has a little replayability (finish it, then go look at the achievements you missed, realize there might be a better ending, and go play it again), but overall I wouldn't expect to get more than 5ish hours of playtime out of this title.

Controls

The controls are admittedly terrible on the keyboard, but all of that gets fixed pretty quickly if you plug in a controller.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Story is a very interesting one: it is told by illustrations, gameplay, and music rather than voice narration.
