Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
If you are into Lovecraft I would highly recommend getting this when its on sale, it plays a bit like Alien Isolation if you are playing solo which is perfectly viable, or more like Lethal Company if you play with up to 4 people co-op.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It has a pretty basic gameplay loop of collecting pages to complete a ritual book, making blood sacrifices, then banishing Cthulhu at a temple, but is also full of secrets including some side quest monsters to vanquish and multiple ending possibilities.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
3) Also I suggest DLC short story progressive playthrough adventures (e.g. more linear area progressions like forest --> caves --> catacomb, rather than just whole map progression).

+ Beautiful graphics.

The immersion, atmosphere, sound, monsters design, the huge map to explore, great job.
5 of 193 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
A little variety in monsters helps keep on your toes and enforces good inventory management.
