The semi-open world allows for more gameplay allowing you to fully explore the world of Highwater
There are a lot of collectables to find and collect over the course of the game even if its only newspapers and books.
The tutorial was well created allowing the mechanics to be easily picked up on.

Some of the dialogue isn't as well executed and feels a little rushed.
The turn-based combat can feel like it drags on occasionally.

Its universe and its supporting cast of characters are fascinating.
Good sea navigation system and excellent turn-based combat system.

Both its story and its protagonist seem really ill-suited.
The level design on foot is really weak, and the game suffers from pacing issues.
