19 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
Personally, I prefer strategy over luck-based gameplay and Claustrophobia does a good job of making the game tough, but fair.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
9 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
The animations, the moving, the combat is so lovely and clean compared to D&D which I find jittery and sometimes buggy.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
"Must Buy" if you like RPGs and especially if you believe a games heart isn't in its graphics.
