Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The story in Oakwood takes place within the same province, and it tells the story of someone who was invited out by friends to a campsite for the weekend.
71 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The controls and graphics are reasonable, the pacing is fairly solid, and the matching of different escape techniques to different dinosaurs is a nice detail.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The atmosphere built up at the start of the game is effective; I found myself growing apprehensive thanks to the sound design, and the initial encounters with the dinosaurs were good for building tension.
