Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
29 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
The atmosphere had chills running down my spine very frequently due to the art style and sequence of events, and the combat was simple and fun, a perfect choice for the length of the game.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
14 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
It was worth it for me, I had fun, the gameplay felt nice, the looks are really interesting and weird, and if you are unsure whether or not you want to buy it, you can apparently also get it for free on Itch.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
14 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
Really enjoyed this game, the graphics fit this theme so well and especially your body disfiguration is done in a great way!
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
6 of 127 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack mostly supports the oppressive mood, though the retro action-style music in Day 6 feels out of place.
