The soundtrack was lovely and I very much enjoyed the narration and the fact that all of the characters were voiced, though some of the characters had very annoying voices that made me grind my teeth lol.
Audio

The voice acting is enjoyable, and especially the character portraits are gorgeously rendered.

The Bard’s Lute: Instead of standard inventory combinations, solving puzzles by learning and strumming songs on your lute is a phenomenal mechanic that heavily respects LucasArts' Loom.
Difficulty

Nice classic adventure. 3-4h to finish with good plot and average difficulty puzzles.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

I'm really surprised that this game was published in 2016 because it is so retro that the graphics options even has support for CRT monitors(!!!) This game is a pretty short point & click fantasy adventure game in which you play Finn the Bard, a competitor in the annual King's Challenge to win fame and reward.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.

No text commands, but there is the lute interface which works well and is the "unique selling point" of the game, as it were.
