What players say

Players praise the humor and charming characters, often comparing it to Monkey Island in a fantasy setting. The puzzles are generally easy to medium, though some strategies are obscure. Many note the game runs long, with the final chapters feeling rushed or budget-constrained. A few players wish for a quest log.
