Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It's a satisfying feeling of progression.
71 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
That said, the large level is a great test of the skills you learn across the other 3 levels, which is why I think it makes for the best ending point.
60 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The graphics, UI and inventory are a nice throwback to games like Deus Ex and Thief so if you are familiar with those you will be at home here.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack is fine and adds to the atmosphere, but it’s nothing that would leave a strong impression.
