The music in the game is generally well-received, contributing to an immersive experience that feels suited for console play.

Overall, while the soundtrack enhances the gameplay, technical inconsistencies may detract from the experience.

- “The music decided to jump to overwhelming volumes in the final stage (Olympus) and the second to last stage (forgive the lack of spelling for the name, but the waterfall area).”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat unnecessary, as it can lead to tedious backtracking, especially in a large world. While exploration is encouraged, it can detract from the overall experience due to the time spent on repetitive tasks.
- “I managed to finish this game in around 3 hours on my first playthrough (got lost a couple of times, and had some extra backtracking and grinding that I discovered was completely unnecessary).”
- “However, while the size of the world gives a lot to explore, it also makes backtracking a bit tedious.”

The game's story is straightforward and lacks depth, with obvious quests that do not engage players significantly. The world feels simplistic, requiring minimal effort to navigate and discover unlockables.
