No achievement in this game marks the ending, so there is no finish rate. The curve runs from the most-unlocked achievement to the rarest, and its shape is where players stop. Steam global achievements

What players say

brilliant, but now I need to go to bed because it's late. even though I want to start over again from scratch. but the fact that i stayed up late to finish it just proves how good it is.

Loved the puzzles and the narrative! Has some effective and haunting set pieces.

I don't usually write reviews, but this is a very, very good game. The atmosphere is perfect, the dialogue feels authentic and can get pretty deep, the puzzles are very clever, a little difficult but still doable. And the horror is exactly what it needs to be. It's just a great experience from start to end
