Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Overall, I highly recommend playing it at least once because it's free, the gameplay is decent and engaging enough, the main campaign is short and quite easy so it doesn't require much commitment, there is a second mode which is more challenging and adds some replay value, the graphics are adorable, the music is fantastic, and the premise does not take itself seriously at all which results in it being quite humorous and whimsical.
