What players say

66% of 172 reviews are positive

Players praise the soundtrack, particularly the title theme. Complaints center on heavy VHS-style blur, grain, and flicker that obscure visibility, with no option to disable them. Players also report freezes and progression-blocking glitches in the prologue.
