Voice acting is not its strong point but thankfully it is a minor component as the story is mostly told through its excellent interactivity and relies on player perception.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

Overall I give MADiSON a 5/10 graphics are nice, movement is smooth, but the dwindling story and fumbling the ambiance of the environment are just things I cant get past and the price is just soooo high for what this is.
Gameplay

I love Fatal Frame so I really dug the camera as a defense weapon mechanic.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It’s all empty tension created by decent sound design, and you start to get that dreaded feeling of being indestructible (which is a death knell for any kind of suspense).
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
