The lighting design enhances the mood, with cold blues and harsh reds bathing the sterile laboratories in eerie hues, while the use of practical effects lends a tangible weight to its creature designs.

7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I played it on stream with friends, and making decisions together added a whole new layer of fun—everyone was impressed by both the quality of the narrative and the polish of the game itself.
