What players say

Players praise the story and dark atmosphere, especially its grounded take on Jack the Ripper, but warn the gameplay feels dated with janky controls, pixel-hunting puzzles, and bugs. Fans of the series appreciate the challenge, while newcomers may find it frustrating without a guide.
