Moderately positively surprised
I didn't think I'd like it after watching the terrible trailer, which made it seem like something geared especially for teenagers into fantasy (and I'm neither). But then I got it anyway in a bundle. It turned out to be fun and charming actually. It draws heavy inspiration from the LucasArts era of adventure games. I didn't love some of the later parts of the game and thought some of the puzzles didn't make sense at all, but was generally pleased and entertained. Narratively and functionally it's very similar to Deponia (developed by the same company), except in a different setting, and with less humor. I find aspects of Romulus negative review (female character analysis) to be ridiculously true of both these games, but just because I can analyze something and find stereotypes and tropes doesn't mean I won't like the game as a whole. I guess I'm a sucker ;) At least a couple of the character dialogues also conditionally unlocked more dialogues options, meaning you could ask something that may unlock a new question, but it doesn't. So you have to go somewhere and do something else, and then ask the same question, get the same answer and only then you'd have a new question available. I don't think this is acceptable and factoring in some other completely nonsensical puzzles (not kidding) it encourages you to cheat instead of trying to solve things yourself if you get stuck. I wouldn't recommend this as someone's first adventure game, but if you can't get enough of the genre I think you'll like it.
