What players think
The recurring themes across 271 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
While I wouldn't have regretted paying for this game in any capacity, there was an IndieGala steam key giveaway for this game going on (and a quick search as of this writing seems to indicate that it's still going), so if you have any interest in this game, look it up first and buy it if you have no choice.
The graphics are... well, I can't really say they're great, but they're perfectly serviceable and just about what you'd expect from this kind of game.
It's a curious mix of old-timey FPS and point n' click games.
Gameplay: Realms of the Haunting is one of those games that I was both quite interested by and somewhat leery about.
Sound: The voice acting isn't bad, but it's nothing that will really blow you away.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 2 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
