Movement is handled by a combination of either smooth locomotion, teleportation, and/or a very fun and innovative 3rd person teleport mechanic where you can click to send an astral projection of your body out into the world.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
12 of 73 sampled reviews raised it
Each character has a ton of personality thanks to fantastic voice acting, with the Mentor and the Jester each being personal favorites.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
10 of 73 sampled reviews raised it
Some great visuals (walls, carpet!) but bugs on WMR like important objects (hammer) or the player clipping out of the environment for good break it.
