131 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's a right mix of classic survival horror atmosphere, slight jank, and story, while still modern enough to be very easy to just pick up and play.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
83 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Luckily, after 45h of gameplay, I have encountered 0 crashes, so at least that is good.
Graphics

Visual looks nice, but you can tell it's a Wii game originally if you look closer at the textures.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you like easily digestible horror with fun combat and some janky controls, then I heartily recommend Mask of the Lunar Eclipse, but keep in mind that it's severely lacking as a PC port in the controls and settings department.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

MotLE has more and better variety in the places you explore and it has a better sound design.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.

maidens of the black water did a much better job at keeping me hooked, with a lot more places to explore, ghosts with actually back stories to figure out, and more interesting playable characters
