Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
140 of 241 sampled reviews raised it
Some, as always, stand out due to contrived logic only the authors of the game are aware of (St. Brigida monastery comes to mind), but majority fit the story quite well.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
36 of 241 sampled reviews raised it
However, my experience with European developed point/click games for the past 15 years has left me with mixed feelings at best, so I was pleasantly surprised by the high level of quality of everything from graphics to puzzles to the story.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
27 of 241 sampled reviews raised it
A good adventure game with memorable characters, interesting story and great graphic / sound design showing that Pendulo still got the touch.
