    Charon's Staircase could have been a very good horrorgame, but it misses too many of the elements to be so. The graphics (on the Switch) are dissapointingly bad and the controls feel clunky. Also, the horror elements in the game barely scare you like they should, although the tension is built up in a strong way. The exploration and the puzzles feel unbalanced. It's better to wait for a sale here.
