    I’m confused. All critics I’ve seen say the game is a masterpiece, yet the Steam reviews are kinda mixed (i.e. not as overwhelmingly positive as the critics). Why is that so?

      Skimming through the reviews, the negative ones I see seem to be mostly people struggling with the difficulty or the pixel art graphics.

      Maybe this is a case of it being so popular that it’s bringing in people who wouldn’t otherwise play this type of game. I remember Elden Ring had a similar thing happen.

        Wild because it has modifiers that let you make the game a literal cakewalk.

        My only gripe is the

        Unnecessary jumpscare when you’re in dark areas too long
