“Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
“You are free to wander around looking for things to collect and talk to people; they all seem to have something unique to say. If not always interesting, some will give you quests which you can complete for some sort of reward.”
“I really love the background music and the story, but I hope the devs improve the controls or the character physics when the character is walking on the tilted grounds in the future patch update.”
“The story and characters weren't enough for me to enjoy the game, unfortunately.”
“There is a day/night cycle with the background and lighting, but this didn't relate to one quest being blocked until tomorrow; tomorrow must have been triggered by some other quest, although I'm not sure which.”
