The quest at the inn on the island was interesting and probably the one I enjoyed most, though it did feel out of place from the rest of the game

3/5 - While Eastshade might not be up to date beautiful, and it certainly does show it's indie roots in its graphics as the game can often be strikingly lovely to look at in one scene and then just bordering on rudimentarily fine in another to downright basic in the next.
Audio

In fact I ended up purchasing the games soundtrack I was so enchanted by it.

9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
They’re not necessarily bad, but I found it broke my immersion a bit at times and I really preferred the character design in Leaving Lyndow.
