Gameplay - I only experienced a little stutter when I came across an auto-save spot, otherwise it was pretty smooth, though the mouse sensitivity at times made the puzzles difficult to click on individual buttons or manipulate dials.

Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
20 of 222 sampled reviews raised it
The puzzles are the right level of difficulty to keep the game fun and the story is intriguing, there's some evil force out there and I hope it doesn't have my sister!
