From Steam reviews

Review notes

Receiver 2 is worth a closer look if you want strong atmosphere, stealth, liminal, and exploration.

Best for players who want strong atmosphere, liminal, emotional story, and stealth.

Check more carefully if you dislike unclear onboarding.

strong-atmosphere

Tone

The mood, place, and presentation carry a lot of the experience.

stealth

Play style

Avoiding detection is part of the intended rhythm.

liminal

Setting

The mood sits in uncanny, empty, or dreamlike spaces.

confusing-onboarding

Friction

The first hours can be unclear without patience or outside help.

exploration

Play style

The draw is moving through spaces, discovering details, and learning the world.

emotional-story

Tone

The story is framed as affecting rather than just plot-heavy.

Steam review snapshots

There really isn't much to say aside from the handling of firearms is pretty spot on and the atmosphere is well executed.
Strong Atmosphere
the aspects of exploration and discovery are also great fun and deeply engaging.
Exploration
Best FPS, best gun culture deconstruction, best mindfulness training, best robot-wrecking parkour panic slow steady shoot-and-stealth-'em-up.
Stealth
The controls are absolutely a massive skill wall, and I have found myself horribly stuck in liminal.
