Sure, but to be fair, there is not much mention about the actual gameplay in the review; nor whether it's a short or long game. She even says that there are no puzzles, no enemies; to me, it just sounds like an interactive story. And the rating is, of course, completely subjective. One of the reasons why I pay more attention to reviews by critics with similar tastes to myself (i.e. I've agreed with most of their reviews) and other critics' reviews I generally take with a grain of salt.
I don't think the review is misleading at all. A single paragraph is enough to convince me that many of the positive aspects of the game that the reviewer points out would be more appreciated by a female audience.
"You'll repeatedly find yourself nodding along as she describes her feelings..."
The honesty with which she reveals herself to you through her journal entries ... is deeply moving."
"The writing precisely and tenderly expresses..."
I'm not saying men are heartless creatures, but I for one am not going to complain about the audacity and deceptiveness of the reviewer, should I not be as enamoured and deeply engrossed into the story of a young female protagonist as the reviewer was herself.
