The gameplay features a mix of intriguing puzzles, but many players find the solutions to be unorthodox and frustratingly obscure, often requiring extensive exploration and backtracking to progress. This can lead to significant time spent searching for non-intuitive NPCs, which detracts from the overall experience. Players are advised to consult online guides to navigate these challenges more efficiently.
- “Gameplay – 8/10”
- “Some puzzles have very unorthodox solutions, and by unorthodox, I mean very player-unfriendly choices that will make you go around the map for a long while trying to find what you are supposed to do. Around an hour or even more of the gameplay is just running around trying to find the NPC that will allow you to proceed, even if it doesn't make any sense at all. In one part of the game, you just have to go talk to an NPC that has absolutely nothing to do with what you are doing, and if you don't talk to it, you don't progress. Use an online guide; don't waste your time.”
