Dropped. Major pain in the ass to find hidden paths/items/interactable. If you can't find them you're basically stuck and can't continue. Everything is too cryptic without a guide. Unless you're willing to spend time walking back and forth, searching every nook and cranny and still miss stuff lmao. Heavy emphasis on puzzles with notes which is a chore to go through. The atmosphere is good, but the "monster" are not scary at all, which is bad for a horror game.
