Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The voice acting is wooden and the story is way too far fetched to be taken seriously, making me laugh at a potential sequel as hinted at the ending.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Please, if you do another one of these focus on gameplay as well as pretty graphics.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Linear gameplay provides some of the most boring highlights of any Hidden Object Game played to date - and I've played quite a few.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
The game also supports multiple languages, with both subtitles and voice acting, though the performances can feel uneven.
