  • graphics
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game, while appreciated for their charm and atmosphere, are generally considered dated, reflecting its 2004 release. Many reviewers note that the visuals, reminiscent of PlayStation 2 quality, can detract from the experience due to technical issues and choppy animations.

    • “Despite the game's age, the visuals and cutscenes still look good.”
    • “On the other hand, the technical issues are so many that the magic often disappears, struggling with the frustrating graphic engine.”
    • “Everything is rendered, but it looks like PlayStation 2, and that ages way worse than drawn graphics.”

  • story
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally considered decent and intriguing, with some reviewers noting it may not be groundbreaking but is sufficient for a lower-to-mid budget game.

Overall, it strikes a balance between storytelling and gameplay, supported by good voice acting and puzzles, making it enjoyable for many despite its old-school style.

    • “The story is supported by decent voice acting and most of the puzzles are not so easy as to be boring, but not so hard as to warrant breaking out a guide.”
    • “I had a lot of fun because the story of this game is awesome.”
    • “Personally did not complete it due to a failure to get me hooked via story plot.”
    • “The story wasn't the greatest but interesting enough to keep me playing.”
    • “Rather than put most of its focus on narrative, like most point-and-click titles, this seems balanced in all aspects, though the story is still quite fine.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally considered to be decent, with some users appreciating its smoothness and thematic fit, while others find the soundtracks to be mediocre and oddly styled with Egyptian influences.

    • “In addition to the game, it brings a lot of extras, such as drawings, music, a 'making of' film, etc.”
    • “The music is smooth and fitting of the theme.”
    • “The soundtracks are mediocre, but they are quite odd because they have an Egyptian style.”
