Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
102 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story was the typical strangeness that I've come to expect from Rusty Lake, though it was still good.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
28 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The blend of escape room mechanics and surreal narrative is intriguing, and the art style — moody, hand-drawn, slightly off-kilter — creates a compelling atmosphere that promises something deeper.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The gameplay is a lot of fun and puzzle solving is again really well thought out and I really like how it incorporates solutions from other media in the Rusty Lake series and especially with the Paradox movie which is free to watch on both steam and on the Rusty Lake youtube channel.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The puzzle difficulty is just right due to the limited space in which the clues are (even though you will be going back and forth, it's quick and doesn't get tedious).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I will say that I really liked the music in this chapter as I'm pretty certain this one had it's own crafted soundtrack instead of stock free music.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The interface of the menu is fitting the game amazingly well, however the ingame inventory is lacking since it sometimes requires multiple clicks to get through it to pick the right item for the current task.
