I think this is the second game of this genre I've played and the first I've actually completed, so my opinions aren't affected by nostalgia. My overall impression is that the game is fairly long, or at least difficult to complete, but the difficulty is a bit arbitrary at times, since the solutions for many of the problems aren't intuitive. Besides that the puzzles aren't too difficult in and of themselves, and none of them stands out as being particularly elegant and well designed compared to other puzzle games. The artwork is likewise "okay", maybe above average but nothing groundbreaking. The setting is neither interesting nor original. The story is bland and generic. This isn't a role-playing game and the number of meaningful choices is very limited, as is replayability. On the other hand, it seems that a lot of love and attention went into the making of this game, particularly with regards to the character dialogues (though that might be typical for this genre) and while they aren't particularly clever and entertaining, they do add life and flavor to the game. In fact I personally feel that the character dialogues are the best aspect of this game. I'd rate most aspects of the game as above-average, and as a whole the game is... solid. There's no major shortcoming, but I also didn't find the game to be particularly fun and engaging, though that's partly down to personal preference. Although the game isn't impressive in a technical sense, it does have its charm.
