    Solid horror game! Good atmosphere good sound design (terrific in chapter 2), decent puzzles, and it gets kinda soooky at times! I think the biggest weakness of this game is that everything on its base line is “pretty good” but nothing quite exceptional that makes it stand out as something truly special? It doesn’t stick with me in the same sense that other games of the genre do. I think the NitroRad review put it…

    i liked this game, yet at same time, it felt like there was something missing. playing in small bursts felt like the best way to go, and the story was compelling! i'm really glad i didn't skip the second chapter. i itched for more a few days after i beat the game completely. now that it's been some time, i don't know if i would recommend it wholeheartedly as it did not stick with me any longer since then.
