Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
150 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The characters are well developed; you are fed backstory in great ways and the twists that happen are such that the clues were there all along but were subtle enough I was still surprised at how it all ended up.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
70 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You get the feeling of old-style 2D/isometric graphics, but with the benefit of modern resolutions, interface and 3D cutscenes.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
65 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting is excellent, the protagonist has a certain charisma, which makes her easy to empathize with.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Rather than overwhelming players with lengthy exposition, the story encourages careful exploration and observation, rewarding those who pay attention to environmental details and subtle clues.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
General art direction and location/character design are on point, creating perfect backdrops for a sci-fi (body) horror experience.
