Story

187 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You'd be surprised that the story is the highlight of this game, the characters are easy to get attached to, despite the voice acting being pretty bad.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

I found the OST to be equally as good as the one in TCL.
Graphics

From a visual standpoint, Downfall immediately distinguishes itself with its grim, hand-drawn art style that conveys both atmosphere and emotional dissonance.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.

The gameplay was also noticeably smoother and more polished—it didn't crash even once for me. 100% recommended for people who enjoy point and click, psychological horror, unsettling environments and slightly slower paced games.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A great world building, smart point and click Psychological horror puzzle game with not too hard nor too easy puzzles, the hints are smart and on point.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The main character felt very relatable to me, and I feel like I understand his struggles.
