This ensures the player will never waste time second-guessing what they’re supposed to be doing, and keeps the focus on moving the story forward.

The soundtrack offers a wide variety of medieval tunes - from idyllic, pastoral, to ones more urgent.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
28 of 195 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics in Guard Duty were truly one of the stand-out highlights during my time with the game, and warrant a recommendation on their merits alone.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
22 of 195 sampled reviews raised it
I fully recommend this game as a new fix for people who miss the comedy, gameplay and aesthetics of classic point and clicks like Discworld, Monkey Island and Simon the Sorcerer.
