Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
73 of 126 sampled reviews raised it
The Viktoria prologue is solid overall, although it feels a bit strange that you can make choices that Viktoria clearly never made according to the main story.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
30 of 126 sampled reviews raised it
The music fits the setting, and while not a stand-out soundtrack, definitely sets the bleak, dark mood.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
29 of 126 sampled reviews raised it
Other than that, there's not much to complain gameplay-wise compared to older adventure games, and I'm grateful for that!
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
18 of 126 sampled reviews raised it
The visuals and atmosphere carry the game for most of the experience, since the soundtrack is mostly made of ambient tracks with only a few actual songs.
