Countless voices from around the web screamed after the release of Layers of Fear: Bring the game to Mac and Linux!; Linux +1; Mac or die! How could we not deliver?
Layers of Fear retains an Overwhelmingly Positive review rate of 97% on Steam based on more than 1500 voices. The critics are also on par with those ratings:

There were sceptics about launching a single player horror game on Early Access, but the community response we have received overwhelmed us! Their positive feedback, constructive criticism, and detective work in unfolding the plot, when given only scarce clues, proved that it was the best decision we have made during production.
We listen closely to what each and every player tells us, we take into consideration the ideas we receive, as well as the criticism that points to what yet has to be fixed.
For now we are working mostly on technical issues, implementing features that were absent during launch, and patching up some bugs. Worry not though, the content update is nearing its launch!
Dear Mac and Steam OS users, it’s finally your time to experience the layers of disbelief, anxiety, tension, and finally fear.
