An excellent adventure game featuring a rich and engaging story, intuitive item interactions, well designed puzzles, optional hidden object scenes, and convenient fast travel.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
+ Presentation is fine for a casual adventure game, graphics are clear and detailed, hidden object scenes are also detailed making it easy to find the objects you need each time, atmosphere is dark and immersive

From a gameplay perspective, this is a point and click adventure.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
+ Gameplay is nothing revolutionary but it is done right for a game of this genre, it's more of a point and click adventure game with inventory based puzzles, the hidden object scenes are again inventory based (which is nice) , not just finding the listed items which is boring in my opinion, the rest of the puzzles and mini games are fairly easy (played at expert difficulty so couldn't skip any of them and i managed to solve everything fairly easy)

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Still, despite the drawbacks, the soundtrack perfect suits this kind of game.
