Edit: Staff contacted me an basically told me that I'd have to bump up my rating for all quests I have ever reviewed by one star. Note that this does not reflect my own opinion on the matter, or the quest, but just that it was something I was made required to do.

This quest is all sorts of train wreck in many ways. After playing it for around 10-12 hours and still not finding anything I find in the quest that I could point to and say "yeah, this is good", that kind of makes it bad. This quest is not completely awful, I have played worse, but I have not found any reasons as to why I wasted all these hours in it.
I decided to play this because I wanted to get some ideas of what inspired Project Snow (or as it was renamed, the Tribute to Yeto's quest). I know this was made afterwards as more of an answer to that, but if anything that only made me more interested. Yeto's quest is famously known for being rather bad, and given that this claimed to be better (and it certainly looked better from the screenshots) it got my hopes up.
But none of the things that made Project Snow good really exists here. This quest is a confusing mess with inconsistent rules and hints, if you can call them that, for things that even in hindsight barely make sense, let alone when you first see it. From my understanding the idea of figuring these things out is a huge appeal for some people, but I just can't relate to it myself. Walking around randomly for hours until you find that one (or two) things that you missed and couldn't figure out is not exactly enjoyable, and it's not qualitative hours of gameplay for me.
