Striking and memorable art, although the game takes a bit too much liberty with homages from, even for an indie title. Unique story, though I did not fully grasp. I do wonder if the creators intended for the players to figure out the vast amount of references pulled from different cultures, or they entrusted the task of decoding their game to Youtubers all along. Uneven gameplay. Puzzles are generally interesting. Limited inventory is horror game staple, but the backtrack with key juggling sucks the momentum out of the game. Tying the ending to play style is not good design either. It's only reasonable to avoid combat when ammo is limited, enemies can revive, and most importantly, it's not fun. Why should player be locked out of an ending because of it?
