interesting because of lovecraft style story. Not hard game you can die only couple of levels and mostly game has no enemies so more of walking and exploration style game and not very scary more of exploration/adventure orientated. Got nice puzzles and nicely long game if you explore everything and collect/read all notes and trophy items etc. maybe not very long game if you are rush style gamer who run place to another. I enjoyed it so 7/10 good game but not masterpiece or insanely good. I Got this on good steam discount so worth of money easily. Game has one very frustrating bug in my first playthrough everytime whenever there is a dark spot and two lit doorways where you have to run or go my character dont move forward and controls feels like im on still the submarine controls and it does always this on those doorway scenes through the game. i fear that my game break because previous save load dont help anything but luckily i find discussion where some guy say that try to move backwards etc. and it worked every time but very stupid on developer that bug has never fixed. in my second rush playthrough (getting missed achievements fast) game works normally on those scenes so maybe it not always happen but its common bug.

I think, it's fair tosay that this game falls into the category "Psychological horror walking simulator with puzzles" The art design is nice, the premise (being losely based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft) is interesting. Sometimes it feels a little wonky (there's a brick on the ground, have to move a little left to proceed forward). But atmosphere in general keeps you going. Some nice jumpscares. I'd give it 7/10

Honesty,I didnt really dig the game, but I like these types of games so im having a hard time giving it a thumbs down since it wasnt awful and I was able to stick with it till the end. Id recommend waiting for it to go on sale. I bought it dirt cheap.

Summary: C+ effort. Just over the line for me to give a recommendation, mostly for the art and atmosphere. Positives: - Enjoyably atmospheric Lovecraftian walking simulator + puzzles + a few sections where you have to evade enemies. The more alien the environment, the better the game was. - Overall, relatively respectful of the Cthulhu Mythos. - Good art (did a surprisingly good job with the Elder Thing friezes described in AtMoM!). - Good sound design, serviceable soundtrack. - Voice actors did as well as they could with the dialog (see below), though the attempted mid-Atlantic accents tended to wander back and forth between Portsmouth and Boston. Negatives: - Short (3-5 hrs). - Puzzles and interaction cues were sometimes opaque. - I thought the worst aspect was the immersion-shattering level of technological anachronism in all of the more human-occupied areas. Did you know that dot-matrix printers, walkie-talkies, stereo tape recorders, and wax-cylinder phonographs were all in simultaneous use in 1948? I sure didn't! The inside of the submarine looked like something out of Jules Verne with its quilted red upholstery, not like the product of a post-WWII Antarctic expedition. - The English dialog was often awkward and stilted, with grammatical errors that seemed, perhaps, due to an ESL writer. Should have had a native English speaker look it over for them to remove odd constructions. - Finally, something unfortunately uncommon with Lovecraftian games, the resolution of the plot is rather unsatisfying. I thought that the way your vision breaks up from time to time, and certain other hints, were meant to suggest a much stranger "real" status of the viewpoint character.
