This game wasn't what I expected but still was good.
Tip for people starting to play the game: if you are struggling with traversal like where to go after this puzzle and all, please, don't hesitate to look up where to go next. This game is really good, but its navigation is, painful. so I really recommend that if you feel bored or frustrated with navigation, look up some achievement guides and they'll lead you to where to go to next.
Beside that painful navigation design, its a emotional, fun game. Recommend writing notes along the way, this game is most entertaining played that way.

The pace is fine, not too slow or too fast. It's definitely emotionally gripping and keeps your interest. The length is kind of short so I'd only buy this if it was on sale, but otherwise a game I'll never forget!

Same sort of review I did for the redux. Decent game but with more dated graphics.

an atmospheric game with an intriguing story, is short but fits the story and besides some wide areas with nothing to do, keeps interesting enough. Just beware if you are going to play in different sessions, game only autosaves and doesnt tell you when, so you can easily lose a chunk of gameplay if you are unlucky
