The 3D graphics are very easy on the eye and they depict the Norse atmosphere really well..

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
These criticisms aside, I do recommend the Frostrune, as the core point-and-click gameplay is satisfying, and it is possible to mute one's speakers.

The art is good and the puzzles are a reasonable difficulty, but the Frostrune takes itself far too seriously.
