100 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Psychological horror, poetry, philosophical dialogue, exploration, puzzles, and deliberately unusual situations are all mixed together to create an identity that is difficult to confuse with anything else.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
53 of 300 sampled reviews raised it

24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
