Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
73 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story wise, it wasn't entirely realistic, but I still thought it was good.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised 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.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Sound design plays an equally important role, with subtle audio cues carrying much of the tension.
