To the point
=====================
A Survival Horror..... sorta Rougelite game ?! It all works so well and is definitely worth your time/money

Good Stuff
=====================
- The core gameplay loop ( Try something, succeed, try something, die, repeat) is actually super enjoyable and you keep just enough between deaths that you can feel the sense of progression.

- The puzzles are largely fine, barring one or two where even a poo-brain like myself could figure them out without a ton of difficulty.

The game gives you good reason to play each character, aside from their unique traits, by putting things into the map that only they can use to make future runs easier. People can collect unique plants in the manor, for instance, that the Medic character can turn into multiple medpacks that spawn each run. These bonuses never feel overpowered with the exception of one or two of the gun upgrades.

- The creators really understood what makes the early RE games so enjoyable and the game has a fantastic mix of great moments, cheesy dialogue and, yes, a ton of throwbacks and references in game for old bastards such as myself to stumble on.

Bad Stuff
=====================
- The combat can be a bit difficult to get used to at first, I know I had issues switching between weapons in critical moments, but you'll get the hang of it

- There's not a lot of enemy variety here and although the few that we get do have some small variants between them it's not strong enough to make them stand out much.

- The game is pretty short, taking me roughly 4 hours and that was with a few re-attempts, this is more of a nitpick but some people might be turned off by it.
