I downloaded Shardlight on 3-8 and finished it on 3-11. What a wonderful, enjoyable experience. Here are the elements that most appealed to me:
1-The art - absolutely great. Ben Chandler is a genius.
2-The post apocalyptic setting. I'm a sucker for games in that setting.
3-The story - very interesting, though I wish there were some more background given on the major characters, especially Amy and Tiberius.
4-The voice acting, especially the actress who voiced Amy. She's terrific.
About the puzzles, I found them well-balanced and integrated into the story. But I'm not a big puzzle person.
One issue I had with the story - I wish the characters' reactions were a bit more emotional.
Now the most important thing - what's next for the Grundislav, Chandler, Gilbert team?
