Story

131 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game was interesting but after the first 2 hours it gets so repetitive and the store feels shallow, I feel like the story development was spot on in the beginning but middle towards the end made no sense.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
108 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Different ways to go about the game also offers some replayability, though I already believe it offers a decent amount of game time for the small price.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics and aesthetics of the game is definitely good quality, it's basically what you see in the video promo and the screenshots.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack of "Halfway" complements the sci-fi setting with a mix of eerie and atmospheric tunes.
