My actual time playing (i.e. not on the menu screen) was about 1.5 hours which is pretty short for a game like this.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
Despite negative reviews I went in with an open mind, even anticipating the fact that the developer is adding extra features which includes a hard mode but I uninstalled this after playing thorugh it once.
