Our analysis
A great-looking, smooth-running horror adventure with a strong premise and setting that is badly let down by its execution. The puzzles are trivially easy, the chase sequences boil down to guessing left or right down linear corridors, and there is no real stealth, while the game constantly hand-holds and explains everything, leaving no challenge. At four hours long and full price, it is a big missed opportunity and not worth it.

Our analysis
Walking simulator with loose plot threads; environmental beauty undermined by clumsy chase mechanics.
