Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Rather than dressing up traditional puzzles with superficial co-op features, the game is built from the ground up around shared problem-solving between two players, placing them inside a strange, unsettling manor where survival depends on how well they listen to, interpret, and trust one another.
