Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Definitely not a "perfect" game that's optimized, BUT it looks fantastic, has an entertaining gameplay loop, plenty of laughs with friends and has massive potential with some tweaks and a pass on the audio design.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
+ A nice game for 4 friends especially if you played bunch of multiplayer horrors like backrooms, outlast, lethal and you need to play something similar to this

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Been looking around for scary games to play with friends, this is definitely one you should try, reminds me of lethal company but with better graphics and overall the environment is way more immersive
