Creative puzzles, super cool atmosphere, co-op done well, and in my 2.7 hours I encountered one bug that required a restart... and it plopped up exactly back where we left off.

Sound design is equally powerful, using whispers, echoes, distant creaks, sudden silences, and muffled ambient frequencies to stimulate paranoia.
