59 of 130 sampled reviews raised it
I did say I wanted to keep spoilers to a minimum, so I can't go into full detail here, but I think Sayoko being an amnesiac was a solid narrative choice to help immerse the players (who are also fully unaware of what this "ghost town" is) and (re)learn Sayoko's surroundings alongside her.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
32 of 130 sampled reviews raised it
The developers said that they wished for you to enjoy this game the same way you would enjoy a movie and I think the soundtrack in conjunction with the visuals really adds to that.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 130 sampled reviews raised it
The OST has to be one of my favorite pieces of ghostpia and it plays a key part in immersing you in its world.

Instead of relying entirely on familiar genre conventions, it builds an identity that feels distinctly its own.
