Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
37 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
The set-up is there when it comes to this type of stuff, the soundtrack by veteran Chad Seiter welds nicely to the atmosphere, the story is told decently and there was some fun reaching new areas inside the town all the way to its far-seated caverns and ruins.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
20 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
To sum it up, Arkhangel has all the hallmarks of an old-fashioned point-and-click adventure game including lush graphics and a beautiful soundtrack, which can be purchased separately as DLC.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
14 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
Haven is a nicely crafted locale and honestly the low-res textures and sometimes hazy visual quality suit the setting well.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
12 of 59 sampled reviews raised it
Accompanied by a rustic soundtrack, the array of literature and seemingly free-roam exploration of the town definitely yearns for an even better game in the developers' future.
