The graphics and some gameplay aspects still could be improved upon quite a bit. I don't really find pixel hunting to be fun, and I think the characters should stick around, and possibly even help or give hints, instead of having them disappear when the conversation in an Act has been completed. Fans of the game series will definitely want to add this to their collection, but I'm not sure that the adventure genre community on the whole will be able to be as appreciative of the game. Hopefully, the series will continue to improve."
