I can easily imagine this becoming a great little gem with many tweaks to the gameplay.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
68 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
However, the atmosphere is phenomenal, and the very little bits of story it gives you are rather compelling, and kept me wanting to learn more.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There is a lot of focus on combat in the trailer, while you could go through the entire game without killing anyone, as killing people is more of a last resort.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Honestly really good effort on the mood and the visuals, I think many people would have a "blast" playing it, just needed a bit more work, and well not being so glitchy.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack and ambient sound design are equally understated, enhancing isolation and tension without drawing attention to themselves.
