Genuinely the best point and click game I've played in a long time. Fun puzzles, locations, characters, catchy music, etc.
It has a good implementation of an otherwise abandoned old-school sort of "edutainment" theming (where if something in the environment isn't for a puzzle, it's at least going to try to entertain you with some kind of animation if you click it). Even the items are this way in many cases (allowing you to pointlessly show them all to various NPC's for reactions, minus a few that strangely have no reaction at all).
Combat isn't bad either, and is thankfully not only simple, but almost entirely avoidable for most of the game if you aren't good at it — or don't like it.
I'd say it's a good length for the price too (or at least it was for me), with I'd say 10-12 hours for a first playthrough.
The only things I would criticize relate entirely to optional content, so I'll be vague; there are some of the more out of the way optional puzzles that require external-game info or tools (like morse-code translation or audio tools, which is not uncommon), and I hate it when games require that. That, and those "specific" puzzles also sometimes have a bit of nonsense logic like the older/worse point and click games (which thankfully doesn't apply to any of the main/required puzzles) The saving grace there is that the external logic moments are usually very obvious, and the nonsense logic can eventually be trial-and-errored to some degree (without backtracking as the puzzle is self contained), to the point where I managed to get all of them done on my first playthrough anyway (even if two of them were a bit frustrating). Also, one fight in the game can't be avoided for a certain puzzle set, and it's likely the hardest in the game, so those slower on the reflexes may find that problematic.
Otherwise, I solidly recommend this. It's probably one of the most competently made point and click adventure games I've played through.
