Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I got 100% achievements at about 35 hours or so but i could have gotten it sooner if I didn't use the radical so often to help the other characters out (He works in the background while I did other things).

So I bought it for PlayStation — thought it would definitely run there — finished half the game, and then I got a Steam Deck... so I bought it again and am now playing aiming to unlock every achievement.

• Satisfying Audio Design: The crisp sound effects of balls clacking, bouncing, and popping match the actions perfectly, adding an extra layer of impact to the chaos.
