First, the music is just plain awesome!! Then the actual story with the personages.. So tricky to get right in 2-3 days but I loved what you guys did with the kids who grow up, the arcade getting old, etc. there's some sort of very familiar warm feeling about playing those old games :) The game with the dog in itself felt like it was a bit too simple and repetitive. Other than that, I just loved this.
