Exercise in frustration and obscurity.

Ok, so I purchased this title from a different vendor - but I feel there needs to be this negative review HERE - so others will not be swept away by the great ratings. This IS a decent title - but frustrating - is an understatment. If you are not strong in memory capacity or math, for that matter - or if you hate riddles and mazes - don't purchase this - you will hate it. I think it misrepresents itself in that aspect and is an exercise in patience. It is beautiful to look at and and a marvel of ingenuity for those that LOVE PUZZLES. I can say that I figured most things out quickly - but that my wife almost broke the screen - hence, another reason, for this review. Games are supposed to be fun - not an exercise in anger or frustration. Keep a notebook - screenshot certain areas and, fianlly, use YoutTube to look things up when you are absolutely stuck - and you may just have a decent time. Not reccomended for casual gamers. The negatives - imho - far outweigh the pros- I cannot advise this purchase. I give 2 stars because while I was able to finish it I cannot say i felt anything - but relief - that it was over. Convoluted clues - and simply irritating mazes abound. Overall? - Bleh.

Good results for a difficult task

Bringing back the feeling of loneliness, the drive to explore and the awe of navigating different worlds that the Myst series provided (with some lesser achievents in later titles) is tough. Obduction manages to provide all that and is a wonderful experience. I will mention only two tolerable defects: I expected puzzles to be tougher, but they were not bad, and I experienced some motion sickness (PC, not VR - never happened to me before!) that I could control using a large field of view and (counterintuitively) 50% motion blur.

Great but not perfect...

Beautiful game that throws back to Riven. There are other NPCs in the game, but their actions are more felt than seen. Some of the puzzles have a wired approach to logic that's sometimes difficult to figure out. The game world is huge with varied locations that seem very weird but that fit in the story. The story is pretty interesting and there are good and bad endings, depending on what you choose.

Defiantly not for me.

I want to preface the review with I got the game for free with the GOG giveaway. While I have only given the game an hour before I got completely bored, I can't really see the fun in it. With a large open map, and limited things to interact with, most of the time I spent was clicking on anything that you could possibly touch, just to find out most of the game cannot be interacted with. The game is beautiful, and there are lot of things to catch your eye, but that's were the problem is nothing leads you in one direction. I only worked out where I was meant to go after I had been around the map twice, followed the flying bug to a dead end, messed with every bit of the fire truck, the lasers, used all the track switchers, open the waterfall. To find out I had not interacted with the flood gate correctly after wasting an hour. This is all down to the problem with poor movement controls when interacting with objects, sometimes things just didn't work and took multiple attempts to get working. At that point I was done, when you are making such little progress that it becomes a guessing game of trail and error. I can only say this game is not for me.

Work of art ruined by bugs and mechanics

Obduction is a beautiful audiovisual experience, and it has many clever puzzles in the tradition of the Myst series. However, the game itself is buggy and was never properly finished, and those clever puzzles depend on a lot of backtracking and an incredibly aggravating game mechanic. BELIEVE THE OTHER BAD REVIEWS. I eventually gave up and used a walkthrough to complete the game, because I wanted to enjoy as much of the experience as I could without smashing something -- my computer, my forehead, whatever -- in aggravation.
