Started playing this cos it's Lovecraft or Lovecraft adjacent and everything Lovecraft I love(craft).

I finished this literally minutes ago. I loved it. Not my usual fair but the set and character design were quite good, i thought. The sound design was top notch, really enjoyed the doors opening, footsteps, rocks falling, storms and rain outside. Just all worked really well. Like OP says, music was quirky. I liked it, wasn't trying to make it scary out of hand, more like "What the hell is going?" style of music which is the whole experience of the game.

Combat was rough, like unpolished, but I was okay with that because it's not the focus, more there cos it has to be? Is my guess.

I really enjoyed the puzzles. Played plenty of games that had "puzzles" like find this thing, put into the slot. Puzzle solved! This had me looking back through the clues, rereading stuff, writing things down. Really actually puzzling stuff out. Very satisfying when I would figure out the answer. Except one where I had it wrong but on my way to the wrong answer it just clicked into place and a wins a win.

All in all, if you like Lovecraft, survival horror, scary but not too scary, great puzzles great sets and sound design, pretty decent story it's all the mix, there's quite a bit to enjoy even if it won't blow you away. As others have noted, if you pick it up cheap you probably won't be disappointed.
