146 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Yes, it's stylish, atmosphere is great (and brilliant voice acting adds a lot to that), but scenes often blend together visually in a grey-brown mush, which makes them difficult to scan.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
67 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A cinematic presentation with excellent use of color and lighting, smooth animations, and plenty of visual detail.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
62 of 300 sampled reviews raised it

If you don't usually play point & click adventures because you find them boring - then you should definitely consider this game (especially using controller).
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story took some heart-breaking twists that I was not at all ready for and the plot is propelled by the logical puzzles and innovative gameplay - the twin-stick controls on Steam Deck set a high new standard for point-and-clicking beyond mouse and keyboard.
