Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
As the story unfolds, Aidan's young daughter Lily becomes equally important to progression when she begins pursuing answers of her own.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
As far as difficulty goes, there's not a lot of it and it's possible to finish in under 45 minutes if you know what you're doing (played it a second time right after the first for an achievement) As far as replayability goes, the only reason you'd do that is to re-experience it after a long while or to achievement hunt (which will take you maybe 2 extra runs tops) the story is linear and doesn't change at all. every puzzle has exactly one solution and sequence to complete.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Gameplay-wise it's your standard point n click with inventory, puzzle solving and finding what to press next.
