Even if you were to strip all of that away, Labyrinth is still a game with a good combat system and excellent level design- I'd say it has good puzzles as well, but there's a caveat here too.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.

Like lots of people have said, the atmosphere is excellent, and the gameplay is balanced well so that you feel like you're struggling even when you have ways to defend yourself.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

Labyrinth of the Demon King is immaculate: PlayStation 1 styled graphics, feudal Japan, utter despair and contempt.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
45 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is really good, and I love how the cutscenes of new dangerous beings seem to be styled like Silent Hill 4 The Room ghost cutscenes.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story and atmosphere is immersive as all Yomi; it is easy to get lost in this world.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
6 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Also this game feels really good on controller, thought to point that out because sometimes games like this do not feel good on controller.
