It’s unsurprising to hear that this is a reboot of a Czech 2003 point-and-click adventure of the same name: the story is there, the game even has an atmosphere of it’s own thanks to impressive use of lighting and gothic design; but it's nevertheless a PS2-era piece of work at heart, going off of the hideously clunky controls and hilarious character animations, although the voice acting isn’t always terrible.
My main issue with it is the poor optimisation and, subsequently, the loading times. Such an enjoyably traditional adventure game, which pushes for challenging amounts of exploration and revisiting various rooms in the mansion, is totally ruined by having to wait almost minutes for each little area to load - it’s infuriating and, when playing on a PS4/5, pretty much unacceptable.
