what i found very interesting was that the learning curve is actually pretty steep. the first time you reach te top, it will propably take you like 10 hours, but if you try it again you will see that the 2nd time it will take you just 2 hours, then 1 and in no time you will be able to beat the game within 10 minutes.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Actually a relaxing experience, the narrative is really nice to listen and the music is also really good.
