First off, the game does do a good job of updating the graphics and sound.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
31 of 198 sampled reviews raised it
However, the game does have some quests that are well done; there is a quest in Needles that is quite good, and the game does a good job of fleshing out “Finster”.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
12 of 198 sampled reviews raised it
Some quests require careful observation and experimentation rather than obvious instructions, while the game's demanding difficulty rewards patience over instant gratification.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
12 of 198 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack has also been remastered with a new, modern orchestral score that is very nice, but the retro synth tunes are all still there, as well as the original pixel art if youd like to revisit either.
