I loved the stories and the themes of nature and magic. The scenery was nice as well.
I think it would have been cool if discovering all the secrets would unlock a final secret that pops up or has something new appear on the road. It took me a minute to notice the top left said I collected all 15, so I kept searching for a bit.
I know it was a darker game, but I think it was still cozy, as it was simple, and low-pressure to play, and felt like reading a spooky book in autumn, and reading is such a cozy activity for me.
