The main campaign is Short, but great, and very replayable.Explore the mansion, shoot the monsters, find the puzzle pieces, don't waste your ammo.Also, how critical damage works in this game is a mystery for me, because headshots occasionally take out enemies easier, but in…Exploration and resource management feel very good and the enemies and environments create great stuff.Why it fits
