Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
This game roughly takes about 5 hours to beat at a normal pace and a few more if you want to master it and get the Challenge Mode as well as different other achievements and difficulties done.The game consists of 6 Chapters of which the first 3-4 have some pretty decent quality and a fair difficulty curve, but once you get to Chapter 5, the quality of the gameplay dips pretty significantly.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Keeping it as real to the source material as possible, is precisely why indie gaming shines in its own special way and I was more than happy to just read the English subtitles and listen to a foreign language I may never speak or write myself.
