Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Supermassive Games crafts a gripping narrative that hooks you from the start, blending teen drama, supernatural horror, and campy B movie charm that I adore.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The visuals are honestly great - the characters look just like their real actors, and the motion capture is top-notch. (except Emma, whose expressions look like they’ve been turned up to 200% for some reason).
