The first one (The Land of Pain) was very nice, despite its 2017 graphics, which have aged well and remain pleasant and cohesive today.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
16 of 74 sampled reviews raised it
The gameplay felt smooth, the sound design was immersive, and the staging, somewhere between soft horror and intense thriller, was well-crafted.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
9 of 74 sampled reviews raised it
Also the voice acting was pretty good and I liked the characters.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
6 of 74 sampled reviews raised it
That said, with an RX 6600 at 1080p on a 180 Hz display, I need to run Cosmic Fear at Medium settings with Balanced TSR to get a comfortable frame rate of around 45–65 FPS, sometimes reaching 70–80 FPS, and there is no FSR Frame Generation.
Bugs
Players who bring up Bugs mostly praise it.
5 of 74 sampled reviews raised it
The performance could still be improved, but I had no problems with bugs or glitches.
