Very good game, but with a caveat
I've got this game on Epic, and enjoyed the puzzles, and exploration of a space station. The visuals are beautiful, and too be fair, I'm a sucker for the NASA-style realistic visuals of the equipment, and everything. This is mostly a linear story (from what I played), where you progress by solving puzzles, and moving through the space station. You play as SAM, and artificial intelligence only able to see through onboard cameras, and software 3D maps, and you're tasked help the Dr. Fisher investigate what happened to the space station and its crew. If my memory serves, I had reached a point between different countries parts of the station. Still... All in all, Epic Games says I played 4 hours. And I stopped playing the game because of a bug (which happens, so no big deal), and a design problem (single auto save) that made the aforementioned bug a critical issue: In got stuck in a puzzle because I activated it, moved away from the room, and when I came back, I was unable to solve it properly, nor reset it to its initial state. If I had had access to save games, I would have reloaded the save a few rooms before, and continued (and probably finished) the game, avoiding triggering the bug. But you have only ONE save, and you have NO CONTROL over it. So, my only way out of it was to restart from start. And, frustrated, I never went back. Perhaps I will enjoy it through a walkthrough video on Youtube, or something... Needless to say, this "one autosave only" design choice ruined my experience, and I'd wish the developers would consider dropping this forever. But if you avoid that bug (and I assume most will never encounter it), then it's an awesome space thriller, story-driven game, 4 stars. Of course, I removed one star because of that bug.
Hilft dir das weiter?
