What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
All the care that went into art style and music really pays off here, as well as all the little hints and details about the story and world.
It has enough length and replayability to keep things intersting, and it is short enough, that once you have completed it all, it leaves you feeling accomplished, and yearning for more from the world.
The menagerie is very impressive, with interesting design and unique attack patterns, and the graphics are beautiful pixel graphics that surpass games from the era it emulates.
The sound design is excellent as well; there are some very creepy localized environment sounds that really helped to set the mood when I was in particular rooms or got too close to something otherworldly.
The environments are very detailed, with a lot of unique sprite assets and environments throughout the game; this makes it pretty easy to navigate even without a map, and makes exploration fun and interesting.

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.
