Seemed great on trailer and on paper, but very poor introduction full of bugs and nothing is explained as the player is thrown into a bad situation right away and the map is a cluttered mess of props.
Really needs polish and completely lacking guidance of game mechanics required for solid foundation as new players start out.
Very bad first impression.
This kind of game stopped existing years ago because 'developer logic' isn't normal logic. I couldn't even get out of the first room. At first I thought this would be a fun, campy adventure, but no. I messed with everything I could find in the room, combined the one that the game would let me, and had to listen to 'slamming' noises for almost ten minutes before I got sick of it and quit. There was only one decent hint in the room, and the moment I made progress on it, the game broke.
Here's the gist of the situation in question:
Monster wants rat (for some inscrutable reason), I picked up the rat, the rat bit me. Character says 'let's trap the rat'. I couldn't even SEE the rat trap on the ground until it highlighted it because the damn game has terrible colors and lighting. Not sure if that's an effect, or just an engine problem. I initially tried to trap the rat with bricks or something, but my character's feet kept dragging them around, so that wasn't going to work. Finally I managed to break a snack machine and get a snack out of it, take the snack, combine it with the trap, and the rat suddenly was totally disinterested in the trap even after it followed me around for half the time I spent in the room. Once the 'solution' was combined, it went back to idling at the door where the monster was slamming against, and I could no longer pick up either the rat NOR the trap, so if I was supposed to move the trap BEFORE putting the snack on it, how was I supposed to know?
Combine this with visibly sickening visuals design (not as in scary or gorey, just ugly as hell), terrible controls (most of which involved scroll wheels and the graphics for which take up a good portion of the screen AND generally don't make any visual sense) and I don't care how much you love indie games, this is a gross mistake. It's been in my game inventory for a while, so I hope to God I didn't pay much for this literal garbage.
Don't waste your time and money unless you like playing janky, terribly voice-acted, ugly, games with horrible controls and 'logic' puzzles which you could only figure out after hours of trial and error.
Games like this make me wish, for but a brief moment, that people weren't allowed to release literal trash and that there was a committee for this kind of thing. Then I remember that logic is as skewed and misguided as this developer was, and rescind my thoughts on the matter, like how this developer should have rescinded his thoughts on making a game in the first place and gone back to work at distribution center or something.
Busted, weird, can't see anything because they've attempted to cover up for low quality graphics with an arse-load of post effects. The main problem though: It's a point and click with awful logic and where most of the objects are hard to even see. At 4k.
I tried to love it, but during a puzzle I needed a severed hand to gain access to get through a door. I could see the hand that I needed and I could have just reached out and grabbed it, but instead of doing so, I just stood there saying "This could be the hand I need." And that's it. Nothing else. Wouldn't pick it up. Wouldn't do anything. No thanks.

Overall I'm going to give this a thumbs up review - but only just. So the game is a sci-fi horror puzzler. Enter a room, solve the puzzles and enter the next room. It is also very interactive and by and large the puzzles are logical. Mostly. But there are more than a few occasions where you will need some quite lateral thinking. And the game does not give much in the way of hints or hand holding.
Also the contorls and UI are quite cumbersome - this can lead to some moments or frustration especially when you need some precise jumps, but end up not making the jumps thanks to the floaty controls.
And finally the graphics - they are deffo fairly low res low poly and thanks to the lighting it can sometimes be quite the chore seeing and finding items needed to progress.
So this game is a true indy in every sense of the word, and it is quite a well thought out game (UI aside) but only buy if you REALLY like lateral thinking puzzles.
If you're looking for a unique, surreal, somewhat whimsical First Person game, this is it. The game plays more like a point and click adventure game than fast-paced first person action or horror (evading enemies etc..) although you do encounter enemies, you are usually able to put some distance between you and them to then explore the environments for items to use to solve various puzzles. It can be incredibly confusing what you're supposed to do with certain items in the rooms and throughout the areas, as with other adventure point and click style games (I admit I had to use a walkthrough several times..)
I am still early in the game but for its marketed retro, sci-fi, sludgy, surreal setting I think it delivers on that and I can say it's unlike any other first person games I've played, to the creator's credit. I was worried it would fall too far into the idle player interaction of walking simulator style games, however, it is much more a first person puzzle / adventure game than heavy combat etc.
Some of the animation / effects can look a little bit rough around the edges, but then other moments look quite nice, the colorful settings are nice to look at, and you have some cool gear to use. Controlling the character around the environments felt a lot clunkier than I was originally expecting, at first, but once I realized how many items you are required to look at (and dig through the environment to find -the back of a radio, for example-) I slowed down and wasn't trying to sprint through the areas as much as I was used to in other first person games, still, the character does seem to move a bit spastically at times. The game seems to feature full USB Xbox One controller support, which is nice, and what I was choosing to play with. Keyboard and mouse movement is probably more fluid for the game's approach, but both are servicable.
If you're looking for a slower-paced scifi / steampunk setting, with some surreal effects and can overlook some "budget-y" looking enemies, this may interest you.
Fantastic game, more puzzle based then fighting, but to many errors, way to many, and the controls need work.
so I have to say no.
I really wanted not to recommend this game :D because there is a particular level so far which slows my computer down to a crawl and I get killed by indigestion at 2 fps even at lowest graphical settings, and I have given up and uninstalled it from my computer. But before that the game is quite lovely for something made by one guy. There's a good mix of adventure and fps. If you like 50's sci-fi kitch and getting slapped in the face by tentacle monsters, buy this game.
I really want to like this game. I honestly do, because it has one of the neatest premises I've seen in a very long time. The art is very 1950's cult sci-fi, the sound design is great, and the premise is a refreshing take on an otherwise stale subject. The puzzles, from what I have been able to see, are well thought-out and require more than just the usual brute-force approach.
However, there are two huge problems standing in my way.
From a stylistic standpoint, the game has the worst inventory system I have ever borne witness to. It is utterly counterintuitive, awkward, slow and detracts from gameplay. The addition of shortcut keys helps a little, but they're generally unresponsive.
But moreso than that, is that the game is broken. THe menus don't respond correctly half the time, puzzles are frequently unresponsive and don't work correctly until the game is reloaded, and important items have, in several instances, clipped through the floor and become irretrievable.
I get that one guy did this all, and it was a valiant effort. But maybe it would have been a good idea to have a buddy proofread it.
A rather bad adventure game with a terrible UI which is slow and cumbersome to use. The mouse wheel is used to scroll horizontally through all the items in your inventory, which you have to do slowly otherwise you can't choose the exact object you want if done too fast.
The mouse wheel is also used to scroll through actions when you mouse over or use an object, such as pick up, drop, observe, use with, throw and put in inventory. It makes it hard to do anything quickly which becomes a problem when faced with an aggressive monster you can't kill and can only distract for a short time making it frustrating to play as the monster kept killing me as I can't do anything quick enough.
When I went into the room with flames and back again all of a sudden my fps dropped dramatically so I was moving in slow motion. I had to quit and restart the game for the fps to be ok again.
The gameplay is rather dull where all you do is just go around finding objects to use on other objects to progress to find more objects and repeat, isn't really my thing. Besides objects on objects there are puzzles which can be quite challenging often taking me a while to figure out.
A game that would of been at least a bit of fun with a better UI, but with the UI the game has it makes it unenjoyable and a chore to play. 4/10 as the UI makes the game bad.
Don't reccomend, the game is too frustrating to play, not worth playing.
While visually striking and thematically neat-o, Albedo is a really difficult game that isn't necessarily difficult for any good reason. Most of the time I've spent playing has been bumbling about looking at the levels because the gameplay isn't exactly friendly and most of the progression is based on arbitrary tasks, half of which I couldn't guess to save my life. I tried to avoid a guide for as long as possible but unless you're willing to spend hours in the same room progressing very little or not at all, it's impossible not to.
Games like this are based on figuring out a specific set of tasks dictated by the specific insanity of whoever made the game, which always results in incredibly confusing and illogical puzzles.
Also on my first playthrough the physics on the hose in the second level bonked out so hard I couldn't progress and had to restart.
Albedo isn't bad but it's so boring I can't reccommend it.
I reviewed this game a long long time ago. Back then I thought xX_DankPotatoz_Xx would be a great username.
Looking back, my opinion on this game hasn't changed all too much. It's a game that has a really nice aesthetic. It's got a creepy atmosphere and the idea behind it is interesting.
However, the game is very puzzle heavy, and as such, loses its creepy unnerving vibe after a while. Honestly I played this game on stream a long while ago, and I had to look up a walkthrough for some puzzles. Sure, this might be due to me having a small and incredibly smooth brain, but nonetheless, the amount of puzzles and how difficult they can become, just sucks the fun out of it.
That being said; figuring out said puzzles on your own, or even after hours of being stuck on it to the point you looked up a walkthrough, does feel rewarding and almost similar to the feeling of post nut clarity. Unfortunately, after beating a puzzle you've been stuck on, you don't feel like solving the puzzle in the next room, you just feel like turning off the game and playing something like CoD where you don't have to use your brain too much.
I do want to say some more nice things. The enemies in the game are designed nicely and suit the game's world/aesthetic. The game itself plays smoothly and the UI is friendly. However, I have to criticise the game's brightness, or lack thereof. It's incredibly dark in the early stages of the game.
In the end, the game is good. If you're a big fan of sci-fi and puzzles, this game should be up your alley. Also, as I mentioned in my old review, there is a scene where you envision flying fish. And that's honestly my favourite part of the game.
I really wanted to play this game. It had an interesting premise and looked good from the trailers, but ..
- It has terrible movement. You randomly change speed, get stuck in small things, clip through large things. It's hard to jump on things. Generally unresponsive.
- It has a terrible camera. It zooms in way too close when picking up objects and randomly takes control for no reason.
- It has terrible interactivity. Interacting with objects in the world, with the inventory and performing actions is very glitchy. Sometimes the selected action changes for no reason. Scrolling with the mouse wheel is randomly either too fast or too slow.
- It has terrible graphics. Maps are either too dark or too bright. There are excessive postprocessing effects like bloom, color correction and grain.
[*]It has bugs. I managed to throw an object out of the map. Climbing glitched out while carrying a tube, so I tried throwing it. Instead of landing either where I wanted or on the ground, the object just disappeared.
I only completed the first two rooms and got tired of playing because of the above reasons.
I bought the game while it was in Early Access, but got around to playing it only now. I don't know what the state of it was back then, but right now it seems glitchy, unpolished and generally incomplete.
This is a one-man project, and the effort put in this game by its sole creator deserves respect. However all that effort did not deliver a good end product.
When I first saw this game during the early access period I was really impressed with the concept and how it stood out from the rest. So I bought it and in order not to ruin the experience waited for it to be fully released.
Starting the game I was really enthusiastic and was eager to turn a blind eye on some minor glitches etc. I really wanted to like the game, but after 4 hours of struggle, that was mainly comprised of struggle with horrible interface Inventory controls, I gave up. The game simply does not worth the trouble, the story is week - "oh no, aliens attack I gotta get from point A to point B". The puzzles, well, some of them are interesting, but some are just boring and sometimes you simply have to click everything around and see what interact with what. By the end of the fourth hour this became unbearable and I deleted the game.
The idea is good, the style is original, but the execution kills the game and at some point the stress that game creates overweights the entertainment component.
As such I would say, well done to the man who singlehandedly put so much effort and indeed for a solo project it is quite good, but as a general game, it sucks before the actual gameplay execution and controls kill it.
5/10

bugs galore that make the game impossible to finish. advertised as something really cool and different, turned out as a buggy mess. 3/10 needs more useless bricks
I'm loving it. I wasn't sure what to think since it has so many negative reviews but I feel like most of their gripes didn't apply to me at all. I LOVE that it's not holding my hand and that you need to explore the environments to figure out the puzzles. And with the inventory system... it's not really bothering me since I'm using a controller. It feels like he was trying to make the interaction a bit more contextual which was maybe a turn off to a lot. Anyways, I definitely recommend this. It was a great little steal on the Summer Sale.
I put up a video review on my channel: https://youtu.be/BCtlr9LLoGE
So, it's pretty obvious how much of an influence Sierra and Lucas Art adventure games inspired this (infact, make sure to keep looking at the tentacles...). It clearly tries to be as notoriously difficult as those games, but in some ways that doesn't work in its favor. Often times though, it does. The puzzles can be pretty esoteric, but none worse than some of those games. The controls are clunky. Not "clunky at times" just flat out clunky. But, they get the job done.
I really do like this game. The asthetic is perfect, and while I don't like the controls, I like the general idea and most of its execution. I want more first person "infinite pockets, use every item on everything" adventure games, and I think this a great place to start from.
Story is good and simple like those games as well, fits the atmosphere entirely.
Honestly, if you think you might like it, you probably will.
This is not a shooter, it's a fpp I guess. It's got a nice asthetic and little story, but the puzzles are a little off and the controls clunky. Would recommend if it went for £3 or £4.
I too yearn for the days of my walkthrough-assisted runs of Maniac Mansion, and I don't even mind that this creator's penis becomes just a little bit erect if I or anyone else calls some of these puzzles vaguely illogical and nigh-impossible. I found myself not caring about that and not thinking of the creator's penis at all. Not very much.
I'm still trying to shake away the memories of an alien eating the corpse of a human while my character watched with a beer in hand, swilling it down to work up the nerve to break the empty bottle (the only potential weapon in the room) and fight the damn thing to the death. Progress comes at a high price in these video games.
Nicely told little adventure here.
I didn't see too much from this game yet, just like Angry Bob below me, I managed to reach to the 3rd room and I totally stucked there. What i shall say is this is the most beautiful partially puzzle game I ever seen, beautiful environment, nice details everywhere, awsome atmosphere (oculus rift support would be epic in this game) the physics are okey what I saw, the interaction with the environment is also good, sound effects? Gorgeous. The tools ingame are very original.
The devs are communicatives.
I can also say that the game is well optimized. I run the game with lower specs PC (3gb memory ram, 750 mb videocard ) than the recommended system requirements, and I run it on max quality, and it runs smoothly (of course my cooler suffers a little bit :P)
Okey, i've met with some bugs but is totally okey for EA game.
So yes! I totally recommend this game. I don't understand why isn't this game so popular amongst the gamers.
This game had me at the trailer. I love the feeling, the aesthetic, the atmosphere. All of it just culminates into this wonderfully weird game that I absolutely love. The puzzle design so far is quite good, and the controls are what I expected them to be; a little wonky, but in a good way. It helps the immersion, so I'm not gonna dock it for that. Really the only thing I'm seeing is the optimization is terrible, but that's to be expected in an early access title.
So far, this game gets a great big thumb's up from me. It's a fantastically strange puzzle/horror/comedy game that really scratches the itch for... strange puzzle/horror/comedy games...
The feeling is real, Its easy to get use to the controls, the puzzles are intuitive, the save game is without checkpoints and its a good thing. The object options changes to attacking when facing a monster. The fighting is intense !
