The game from start to finish, with a lot of exploring takes maybe 3.5 hours to 4 hours to finish. the atmosphere is great, voice acting is pretty on point.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

*As for "scare factor", the nice visuals, good sound design and overall atmosphere made this game actually a bit scary, at least for me.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Music/Sound/Sfx: 11/10 with one word (PERFECT!) jumpscares: 8.5/10: They are very good but some of them are bugy for example you stuck at your control after a cinematic jumpscare
