GAMEPLAY: Everything worked as expected, and not a bad take at all. The hard cut between "burn typical objects" and "burn memories" threw me out a bit, though.
VISUALS: Most of my complaints here are nitpicks--the look of the snowed-up windows, the font size cutting off flavor text. The overall look is solid for the setting, and the light of the fire is well executed.
AUDIO: The 'touching violin' was better than silence, but didn't end up doing much for me. The protagonist talks too much about obvious things, and the voice actor, while competent, isn't enjoyable enough to push past that. Otherwise, the sound effects are, well, effective.
THEME: The extra narrative touch of the mechanical resource puts it above average. Again, though, the hard cut sours it a bit.
I also have to say that I found the cookie easter egg before reading about it, and just about lost it. Dashing around the house was terrible for the atmosphere, but it was great fun. Props!
