Is this going to be one of those times when you pretend not to have a plan until the last moment? And then turn out to really not have one?

What's the difference between a pickpocket and a peeping tom?

over the shoulder action, puzzle solving, psychotic horror?

idk. its really more about the atmosphere than the gameplay (which isn't terrible either)

its about a crazy lady journeying into hell. they consulted with a bunch of people who suffer from psychosis and doctors who specialize in it and it comes across very authentic.

edit: here, does this help?

It's not.

It's not really supposed to be fun though. It's meant to make you uncomfortable.

Really good game.

Highly recommend playing with a good pair of headphones or good surround sound, if you have either available to you. The sound design really elevates this game. Glad to see it getting some love.

yes. a good set of headphones is key. Not because its a lot of jump-scares, but for other ACTUALLY scary reasons

you will not be disappointed my dude

and i take it back about the gameplay. ive found that combat is not actually that bad after my first boss and miniboss. its simple enough to grasp, but fast paced enough to challenge. id say it FEELS above average
