Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
This game has SOME well written dialogue, but it feels like the character design pushed the game to be made, and I can't help feel that the game is trying to push discussion points just to seem poignant.

I really want to love the game, it starts off really fun, the concept is strong and the visuals are amazing.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
There is some resource management in the game, but it felt super easily managable, I was definitely bleeding money on the highest difficulty, but was pretty far from bankrupting; I only had to make it through 5 nights, so loosing 40-50 euros per night wasn't that big of a deal.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Soundtrack is also a strong point of the game, and is a very important aspect as it sets a mood for conversations instead of voice acting.
