This game is near perfect, in my opinion. Everything pulls together to add to the particular nightmare-focused horror that this game is going for. Some of the more subtle terrors in the game remind me of nightmares I had in childhood, which made the game feel uniquely designed to unsettle me in particular. I also deeply enjoy that after your first playthrough, the horror drops, you get overpowered goodies, and the game seems to invite you behind the horror curtain so that subsequent playthroughs are less serious and more so something to be laughed at. It feels as if the developers decided that the jump scares couldn't be scary forever so they might as well allow the player to have fun with the game in a more relaxed way when they replay it. Overall, a wonderful game that you should play if you're at all interested in survival horror.
