Only get this if you enjoy fiddling around with useless controls trying to place things correctly to the millimetre while you constantly have an annoying voice in your ear prattling on and grating on your nerves. When this is over you will not have a sense of achievement, you will only regret that this is not a shooter and you could not kill the owner of that voice.
Did they forget the puzzles? This is just walking simulator! And when I say walking, I mean WALKING, long sections of going back through the parts you've been before at a snails pace.
4 / 10
Don't really get the only 40% negative reviews for this. Feel like this is a pretty decent story and exploration focused walking sim with a bit of puzzling. I assume a lot of people thought this would be an actual puzzle game, which it really isn't.
Very good game. Only issue is that the screen resolution options seem to be hardcoded and not comprehensive. Fortunately it's possible to modify the settings file to manually set the resolution.
Right, well, I quite liked it! First of all it didn't wear out its welcome, but is a rather neat little package that you can finish in an evening. The sound and music is very good, and the graphics are sleek with good art design. The overall atmosphere was nice and I liked the worldbuilding.
I actually enjoyed the system of interacting with your partner through photos (something other reviews have critizised). It could be janky, but overall there was a lot of commentary and it was decently written.
As for puzzles, they were hit or miss. None of them were super difficult, but some could be annoying. I consulted a walkthrough for a few.
In closing, a charming game that the developers can take pride in, and that's worth your time.
Two bugs, climbing ladders: you get to the top and fall back down so you have to climb again, and the mirrors at the end of the game will not allow me to pick them up. have to restart multiple times.
I actually enjoyed this game. It's not as polished and interesting as Portal but I like the idea of it. I didn't have any glitchy problems at all. If it's on sale I'd say it's worth it.
Decent walking sim with light puzzles, more comparable to Lightmatter rather than Portal.
The story is good, there is a strong lore worth digging around in the game ! The puzzles are not that difficult and you know what to do if you pay attention to the dialogues. You are not stuck for long thanks to the great help-system introduced here (you can take pictures when you are not sure of the next steps and the game will provide hints).
Not the greatest of its genre, still interesting and worthwhile if you have some hours to spare :)
Reminds me a lot of INFRA. You play as a museum visitor. Musem collapses, then you are forced to go through underground complexes, labs, facilities, water treatment areas and offices etc while fixing broken shit and uncovering a conspiracy as the place is collapsing.
Interesting idea but the story doesn't get more interesting, the gameplay is rather boring and the final chapter was buggy for me
A very enjoyable game, sitting somewhere between a first person puzzle game and a walking simulator. You have limited construction/deconstruction abilities, and the puzzle gameplay revolves around this (building bridges, weighted switch/tile puzzles, etc). It takes a lot of cues from Portal and The Stanley Parable, and it's not as good as either of those, but it's still fun in its own right. It won't change your life but it's a very fun few hours.
I guess I liked it; voice acting was decent, the story was interesting and the puzzles which revolve around a 3D printer gun and also taking pictures to communicate to your partner were mostly enjoyable enough. The game has a slight firewatch vibe to it in that you are in regular communication to another person but you don't see them until the end of the game.
I did experience some bugs though, ladders in particular were very quirky, my character would regularly fall down from the top just after finishing climbing and you sometimes have to approach from weird angles to interact with them in the first place. Interacting with any object really can be problematic; at least once I got stuck looking at a particular book and had to quit the game all together. I also had one crash to desktop but luckily no loss of progress in either case.
I also wish that the interactions were consistent, like when you are looking at emails you need to press escape to close the interaction but when looking at other objects such as books you need to left click (escape will just pause the game) Its a minor gripe but muscle memory from other games where escape works as you would expect (i.e. first press closes the interaction and a second press pauses the game) makes this behaviour kind of annoying.
Overall I enjoyed it but at the same time its very short; It might seem a bit expensive at full price for roughly around 4 hours game-play (I reckon an hour of my time on steam was me leaving the game idle) but then again writers and voice actors don't work for free so paying a little extra is expected for these kinds of games. Still though you might want to wait for a sale.
I liked the concept but the game was tedious and boring. Like they took Portal, Prey, and Ether One and mixed it into a buggy nightmare. In the last section I encountered a soft lock that made me so angry after slogging through the rest of the game that I just quit. I was probably two minutes from credits and I couldn't bring myself to reload it.
I enjoyed this game a lot. It was intriguing, and I loved the little hints here and there that point towards the big secret that ties the whole story together. The game's a bit short, but it was long enough to be fun and short enough that it didn't overstay its welcome, so that's fine.
I received this game at a considerable discount, however, and I might not recommend it for the full price. It is quite expensive for what it is.
I will say that I encountered a bug that happened twice in the Aequus chamber that caused me to get stuck on ladders after climbing down them. I was forced to quit to menu and go back to the most recent checkpoint. I have no idea what caused this bug, but other than that and the thing about the price I don't have any meaningful complaints about this game. I look forward to seeing more from this studio in the future.
It's a walking simulator story. Good side was is that it wasn't bad, I did enjoy the retro future story. Bad side, it's a bit expensive by default, and it's very linear with no meaningful choice as the player.
Whilst it started well, the quality of the game drops from there. Passable dialogue, somewhat ropey story and buggy puzzle design let down what could have been an interesting game.
If you love a good conspiracy mystery set underneath Stonehenge, this game is for you!
I love the premise and the style of this game, and once it gets going you get some great little puzzles to work through.
Not going to spoil it but I also love certain voice actors that really bring the game to life.
A decent, recently-released first-person puzzler by an indie (first-time?) dev - with everything good & bad that that implies.
Pros:
* Decent puzzles.
* Very good voice-acting.
* Actually get to see your allied NPC doing things & moving (a rarity, somehow, in this genre).
Cons:
* Events are a bit buggy. (eg: didn't get a "room intro" audio bite until I'd solved most of the room in question)
* A cpl puzzles were bugged. (took the requested photo, and got doodly-squat - had to reload from checkpoint, then it worked)
* After I finished the game, tried to re-play a chapter & start a new game - game crashed every time. (was no issue w/ 1st game tho *shrug*)
Meh:
* Trying to find what to do was sometimes laughably easy, and sometimes a lesson in hair-pulling; overall okay, tho.
* Dev: No character mentioned what looked like a settlement in the desert in the globe, at the end of the game? Would have been nice to at least hang a lampshade on that.
TL;DR: As far as the game itself, if the bugs are addressed, it'd be a solid 7.5; as-is, I'd give it a 6.
Man... I dunno. Not a huge fan of this so far.
I'm past the "tutorial" and a few things are really grating on my nerves.
Firstly, your "partner" that you can send photos to in exchange for hints and commentary really needs to be more context-sensitive than she is. I skipped ahead a bit before I was supposed to - you know, EXPLORING - took a picture of a sign, and she told me "Yeah, that's literally where you need to go, it says so right there." But I actually wasn't supposed to go there yet, I was supposed to go back and fiddle with something in the previous room. Very misleading, and kind of ruins the whole point of this system if she can give completely wrong information. She also told me at one point "Take a picture of where you are so I can help!" So I did exactly that, and her response was "I have no idea what you're trying to tell me." Give me a break!!
Also, after completing an obstacle course section where you're explicitly tasked with creating a bridge to walk between two platforms, I came upon another section where I had to cross a slightly larger gap between two platforms. I had plenty of matter-juice available to do it, but for some reason, the little matter-creation gadget arbitrarily refused to function in this spot. I spent several minutes jumping down, looking around, trying different angles, trying different spots.... and then it turned out that the solution to the puzzle is to ask your "partner" for help and have her solve it for you without needing to use your new toy at all.
I'm sorry, but "this puzzle is actually impossible, but if you give up and ask for a hint it magically solves itself" is not compelling. It's lame.
I'm not going to refund this immediately, but I'm not impressed so far. I'll give it another shot later, if the game gets better I'd be willing to change to a thumbs up. Really not an encouraging start, though.
Also, you'd think a team of BaFtA LuMinAriEs could figure out how to support 1440p. Just sayin'.
Highly recommend this game for anyone in to the shorter puzzle games. The story is great, the enviroment looks great and the mechanics and challenges are fun. The only downside is - almost 20€ for a 3.2 hour game (yes, i did explore a lot and read signs, monitors and so on)
A potentially interesting puzzle game idea that's ultimately hampered by a sore lack of polish. The main mechanic involves a device that stores certain objects in memory so you can spawn copies of them later. When constructing an object, it is not projected in 3D space ahead of you but rather forced orthogonal to the surface you're staring at. This is a boon in some specific puzzles (there are a few tile-based ones early on it's well-suited for) but when it comes to more open-ended puzzles and traversal it gets nightmarish quickly. For example, in one section I was required to chain two flat objects together to cross a gap in a hallway, but the second kept snapping to a position two or three feet above where I needed it, making traversal impossible. Anyone who's tried to construct complex objects in e.g. Garry's Mod probably knows the kind of glitch I'm talking about here.
The other core mechanic is your ability to send photographs to Amber, an NPC companion (for handwavey reasons this is your only form of communication). I'm much more receptive to this one, thanks in large part to the quality of the voice work, although in my limited experience with the game it's not used super well. In one of the earliest puzzles Amber seems to be established as a quasi-hint system, and she (repeatedly) tells you that "if you're stuck" you can ask her for "help" by sending a photo. It turns out that sending a photo is the solution to the puzzle.. There are some neat moments during exploration where the two of you will exchange photos to gain a better mutual understanding of your situation, but within puzzles Amber mostly boils down to an activate button that works on a three-second delay. I think this mechanic would be a lot cooler if there were more interesting nonessential objects you could photograph just to hear some additional dialogue a la Firewatch (although moments like this may show up later)
I have other nitpicks but they're relatively minor, and in most cases fixable. The default mouse sensitivity was way too high for me, and for some reason I was unable to save changes to it in the settings (I did not change other settings so I don't know if that's a general problem). Standard 1440p and above resolutions are not supported, and even on max settings I found that some of the text wasn't rendering sharply enough to be legible. Puzzles will give you hints nearly as soon as you walk through the door (although this might just be a function of it being early in the game). Room design can be unrefined, to the point where doors you aren't supposed to interact with just appear as off-color wood panels with no detail.
All in all, I got a pretty sour first impression from this. This was due in large part to the barebones presentation and issues with the settings, but the frustrating combination of simple puzzles with fiddly and tedious execution definitely didn't assuage my concerns. Maybe I'll come back to it another time and see if the harder puzzles feel more engaging, but right now this is one conspiracy I don't care to unravel.
oh god i shouldn't have written that last sentence that was awful
