Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Despite the gameplay tending to be a little repetitive, it's still quite enjoyable.
88 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
To start, the story is incredibly barebones,with only two important things happening in its entire 10 hours of runtime, one happening very shortly after you start, and the other being placed at the very end.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Permadeath mode is a fun addition for the hardcore achievement hunters, traps are neat additions to levels that do actually change how you navigate the stage, randomly-found items which boost stats are cool, the new minigames are awesome, the new music and overhauled visuals are nice, the sound design is genuinely unnverving at times, and the devs going out of their way to add a reference to a prominent Bendy fan via an easter egg was a wonderful touch.
