28 of 242 sampled reviews raised it
The system itself might seem challenging, but once you get the hang of it it’s hilariously forgiving on normal difficulty.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
12 of 242 sampled reviews raised it
The art style is unique and charming, the mood and music are awesome, the game mechanics are deceptively simple and novel, the story is cool, the characters feel layered and distinct, and the dialog is very well-crafted and flexible.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
5 of 242 sampled reviews raised it
Soundtrack is very simple and a bit repetitive, yet brilliantly fitting to atmosphere also.
