Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
127 of 213 sampled reviews raised it
People familiar with Orwell will probably recognize the "social media hacking" aspects and in all honesty, Greyhat surpasses its spiritual predecessor in both story and puzzles.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
35 of 213 sampled reviews raised it
Its strengths lie in its investigative mechanics, grounded hacking simulation, and morally charged premise, while its weaknesses stem from uneven pacing and limited narrative branching.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
22 of 213 sampled reviews raised it
The game's difficulty ramps up naturally throughout (though there is one mission near the end that made me want to pull my hair out), and the puzzles get more and more creative and force you to think outside the box to find solutions.
