Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Let's start with the good things: the art style is nice, the game seems to run fine framerate-wise, and you can play it without paying a single cent.

Audio

Dim colours and a moderate amount of polygons together with soothing piano music and subdued sound effects generate an atmosphere akin to a hushed dream.
