How long is the full game?

The checked official pages do not state a reliable full-game runtime. This site does not publish a fixed number based on a review, a forum estimate, or a generic genre assumption. Playtime varies with exploration, puzzles, optional investigations, and difficulty.

Is the game “good”?

That is a judgment rather than a stable fact. The guide can link to current reviews, but it does not turn review coverage into a fabricated score. The best first check is the official demo, followed by the gameplay loop guide.
