Perhaps the most baffling thing about Lux-Pain is that it's being released at $30. This may have been an easier sell at a more modest price, but competing with games in the same price range is going to really hamper the sales of an incredibly niche title.

A decent amount of the dialogue is actually spoken by some worthwhile actors and while what they are saying doesn't often match up with what's on the screen, it usually makes a lot more sense.

All the music and sound effects are wonderfully atmospheric; the laments of lingering doubts and forgotten ghosts, it might be advisable to turn the volume up and close your eyes. You won't be missing too much apart from some shoddy English usage and barely animated drawings".
