Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Enviromental puzzles are fewer than the ones relying on object retrieval, so perhaps the gameplay can use more variety in that regard as well.
20 of 206 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
An Unreal Engine 4 project, Irony Of Nightmare can really boast about its pretty looks which extend far beyond the crisp textures featured on most visual assets.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
There are some fun puzzles that will make you wrack your brain, an interactive webchat with a working text bar, and some solid sound design and ambience.
