Co-op

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.

What is actually in this game is 3 missions, Curse of Innsmouth which is a good introduction to the game mechanics and can be completed quite quickly, Sentinel Island which is the meat and potatoes of the game as its huge, has 2 ways to complete it and has 4 other very well done sub missions to find and complete, just make sure to pick up the map at the start !
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

As with The Shore the game really shines with its Lovecraftian visuals, themes and atmosphere which are very well done especially the many unexpected jump scares , I had no crashes or bugs and it took me about 10 hours to finish the 3 mission solo and was overall impressed with the general state of the game for an early access title.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
12 of 191 sampled reviews raised 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.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
9 of 191 sampled reviews raised it
The difficulty really ramps up, especially in a group, as the game also scales in difficulty based on how many party members you have.
Bugs
Players who bring up Bugs mostly praise it.
8 of 191 sampled reviews raised it
No bugs or glitches in the game I could personally find, myself.
