Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
194 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Discussing the positives, first of all, the story is great; it features a short but interesting one with a great plot twist turning around postpartum depression, where the game gives you some hints as you advance and characterises the state of mind with symbols that make the game exploration more interesting in order to find some details.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
61 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Its is atmospheric, creepy and interesting, and the graphics are pretty good...minus the stupid vsync thing.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Sound design further strengthens the atmosphere, with distant laughter, creaking metal, and haunting music reinforcing the feeling that the park itself has become a living nightmare.
