Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The game does a solid job staying atmospheric, even though it only takes place in a house, and the early 2000s video camera style graphics were actually pretty cool and might be redeeming for some people.
47 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I'll never know, because I decided to uninstall the game with 1 of 3 achievements and nearly an hour of gameplay where I really, sincerely, gave this game a chance.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The sound design was nice (except for the alarm clock, but no one likes those).
