Story

I chose the 17th century English option and I found it absolutely beautiful to read and listen to; I think it is deliberately written to be poetic (although it's hard to disentangle that from the language of that time period sounding poetic to modern ears in general!) and it has the effect of heightening the emotion and atmosphere while still effectively communicating important plot details.

I have only limited experience with deck building games, so I'm not the best person to evaluate the mechanics, but I'm having a good time.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

Related to that: the voice acting is genuinely some of the best I've ever heard.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

The gothic visuals, audio, and language lend to an immersive experience putting you in the shoes of the Maven as they unravel the story and try to save the family.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
3 of 87 sampled reviews raised it
The combat can get quite complicated, but the UI does a great job of showing what the results will be, so if you're having trouble understanding, I suggest taking a second and working through the combat one step at a time. took a while to understand it all, but that makes it really rewarding
