Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I like me a good walking simulator if it tells me a compelling story - funnily enough, I got this because I thought it had some Lovecraftian horror vibe to it just going by the soundtrack.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
A stunningly beautiful walking sim with surreal, oneiric visuals, unique setting and intriguing worldbuilding.
102 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The environments were great, the ambience given by both sfx and music was unsettling in a lot of parts, putting me on edge even when knowing I should be safe....
