The developers clearly understand the unsettling appeal of liminal horror and make excellent use of empty spaces, fluorescent lighting, and distorted architecture.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
14 of 289 sampled reviews raised it
multiplayer is fun and can get chaotic during Incursions (especially if a member of your party (me) won't stop surfing on objects).
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.

I am not usually a single player gal, but I am loving going through each of the levels trying to get gold on every difficulty
