That's worse than I expected. The game's art style alone will likely earn it some points, the fact that scores are this low with the art style probably means the game underneath has some real issues.
For me personally that's allright. While I would have loved to hear endless praise for the game, they are not an experienced studio and point and click games are really hard to enjoy for a lot of people. I'm just happy the got some publicity and hopefully feel happy about their work
~~51st~~ 63rd percentile places them in the middle of the pack.
