Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The voice acting is generally good, some lack of emotion in various scenes but hits the mark most of the time.
35 of 162 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The story isn't very inventive, the puzzles are too easy (the characters provide detailed hints in monotonous dialogue, explaining how to do every step of each puzzle before you're even given a chance to solve it), it's more like a boring interactive film, with bad visuals.
