The level design is also very good with the map winding in on itself, good use of terrain and an interesting water mechanic.

Personally I think it has a soundtrack that is a solid 9/10, Game play is simple but also provides difficulty.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

The pleasant light soundtrack further emphasises the cozy nature of Scarf, but the characters constant vocal interjections were a tad vexing.
