Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
13 of 181 sampled reviews raised it
The game's a solid walking simulator, with reasonable scares, the puzzling is decent and the gameplay and scripting is pretty on-point - I think at times, there were little things I got stuck on, but I think that's more my own skill issue than anything else.
