What players think
The recurring themes across 181 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
It's a great game, amazing story and characters and atmosphere.
If the story is the star here, the aesthetics and sound design are essential supporting roles.
I'd call it a puzzle game and these puzzle mechanics are super cool: one part is searching for the next word to input into a terminal by various means, the other is an FPS exploration gauntlet that will test your memorization and speedrunning skills, generously spiced with psychedelic effects and visual glitches (intentional ones).
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
