The game is "ok" at its best. At its worst is horrible.

The bad:
You cannot rebind your keys. There's a post from 2018, where the devs say they'll implement key customization, however that turned out ot be a lie, as in 2023 it's still not possible. They explained how to do it manually via editing Inputs.ini, but not only have they provided a busted template, but the key hints in the game still show the old keys.
This would only be half horrible, but they also decided to implement a couple quick-time-events, so now not only do I have to hit the correct key in a very short period of time, I also have to remember what original key (that's displayed in the hint on the screen) corresponds to what key after editing inputs.ini.

Frame drops and stuttering on a high end machine
Controls are janky af. The also would only be half horrible, if they didn't decide to jam a bunch of platforming "puzzles" into the game.

The meh:
The story is FINE. It's not good. It's FINE. Can't say it gripped me at any moment. Half of it makes little sense if I'm to be honest, but I GET IT. It's FINE.
There was a missed opportunity at the very last scene of the game, where I thought a simple A or B choice would go a long way, making you the hero or the bad guy, depending on how you wanted to role play the character. Instead we get a very bland and quite unnecessary ending scene.
The puzzles were extremely easy, posing no challenge whatsoever at any point (unless you had to f******* jump)

The good:
The locations looked rather nice and believable. I was never lost or confused when it comes what to do next, or where I am.
Voice acting was also pretty decent. There's a bunch of recording you have to listen to and for the most part I quite enjoyed them.
The pace is usually fine. I didn't feel like the game dragged on. I am not a fan of extending playtime for the sake of extending playtime, so the length of the game was adequate to the amount of story it contained.

I didn't hate it. I didn't like it. I bought it 65% off, but don't think I really struck a bargain here. Meh.
