Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
53 of 195 sampled reviews raised it
Enemies are tough, but don't respawn, the characters have good art and small arcs befitting the short story, and the world feels like it's on the brink of collapse.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
48 of 195 sampled reviews raised it
The movement mechanics, leaping in particular, feels really fun and makes for some neat jumping puzzles where you have to gauge how far you're gonna go, lacking air control.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
27 of 195 sampled reviews raised it
There is an otherworldly rhythm to the visuals—the constant flicker of lights, the mechanical groan of living walls, the way enemies pulse and convulse as if caught between being alive and dead.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
17 of 195 sampled reviews raised it
The characters are a fun collection of oddballs. the Atmosphere really shines, the different parts of the world each having there own unique feel while overall maintaining a chilling desolate vibe punctuated by minimal sound design that works when it all gels together.
