Admittedly I view my experience through rose-tinted nostalgia goggles, but I'm convinced that its competency in story and level design may endear itself to both new players, as well as returning ones.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
34 of 271 sampled reviews raised it
The coloured lighting and animation are particular standouts, with little details that would take many more years to make it into other titles.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
33 of 271 sampled reviews raised it
Exploration sections are riddled with traps and pitfalls, but the game signposts these pretty fairly with dialogic, musical or visual cues that make them fun set pieces rather than frustrating punishments.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
14 of 271 sampled reviews raised it
It's really a wonderful adventure with great level design, addictive puzzle/ platforming, excellent voice acting from the great Doug Lee, and of course a story by Hal Barwood-- there's a lot to recommend!
