Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Necrophosis has great visuals, interesting lore and good world-building that unfortunately gets drastically undercut at the game's finale thanks to a lack of meaningful choices/consequences and some oddly repetitive game mechanics at what should have been the emotional climax.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
At the end I finished 9 of i think 16 achievements and when going back through it still required the whole scene to view. so if not a press to continue to the next line in the first play through at least int he replay or scene selects. or a menu option.
