Fun, short, but very good!
The premise is very unique. I haven't played a game focusing on figuring out alien artifacts in this manner. The Museum premise was pretty interesting, and fun! I would have liked to have seen the artifacts end up on display over time as I progressed. This game is good! The puzzles weren't very difficult for me (Finished in about 3 hours so I guess I'm average) but the designs and puzzles were very interesting and I got a few of those good goosebumps moments when something activated or otherwise worked and surprised me with the results. There's a bit of a story as well, but I will let you discover that on your own! I did like the ending, and it left things open nicely for what seems to be an upcoming sequel, which I admit I'm actually excited to try! While the game is short, the price isn't too high, so I wouldn't worry too much about it being a waste of money, and the promise of a sequel (and I saw people who worked on DLC in the credits) has me quite interested in seeing what else they come up with. In conclusion, I found this game refreshing, and I was definitely entertained! I am an old Myst puzzle gamer, so I didnt' find it super difficult, although I did take a break at one point because I was being obtuse and not noticing a detail I should have, but for the 3 hours I spent I was quite entertained and mystified, and really enjoyed seeing how things came together, and later they really start coming together in an interesting way. I have to give props to their team for the creativity involved here in makign the various alien artifacts and how things develop as you work on more of them. I was pretty hooked for the time it took me to play! Great game, no violence, (although a couple of hints of violence that happened but nothing awful), I'd let my kids play this if I had any.
