Post-apocalyptic purpose journey

I have only recently started to play Pont-and-Clicks (the serious kind anyway). Through some of the comments here on GOG I was drawn towards the games deveolped by Wadjet Eye and what a revelation this was. I'm glad that this has been my first experience of playing a game from this company because it is simply a masterpiece. The riddles are quite hard (at least they have been for me) but solveable and immensiley rewarding. A prime example is the Council Code, which rewards players not only with the satisfaction of having cracked a code but also by adding background knowledge and enriching the overall story. Wadjet Eye has managed to weave together such rewarding gameplay with an amazing story throughout the game. Another big factor that contributes to the awesomeness of this game is its humor. Your floating and handy (pun intended) sidekick is a source of funny quips and snappy comment. Combined with the dry humor of Horatio, the dynamic between the two is just perfect. And it isn't only this dynamic that contributes to the humor but also the employment of "robo-vernacular" throughout the game that is able to lighten the mood whenever necessary without negelcting the more serious undertones. Speaking about the seriousness: Primordia's world is also dark and thought-provoking. What happened to the humans? Is the common good preferable to individual freedom? What is justice? Questions such as these are raised throughout the game and beautifully integrated into its dialogue. I can heartily recommend this title and, personally, I look forward to play more of Wadjet Eye's games.

High Quality Point and Click Adventure

The writing, music, and most puzzles were very well done, as well as the art work. I would give it 5 stars except: -there were some bugs I encountered -some puzzles were very arbitrary, requiring me to use a walkthrough to tell me that I needed to use a specific object on another specific object without any hint or clue in the game that this was needed and no seeming relation between the two objects.

Good story, but uneventful at times.

As far as point-and-click adventure goes, this had all the right kind of puzzles (challenging, with enough clues to figure them out with minimal or no outside help), and the characters/world was interesting, but for a game created in 2012 I found the movement/interface a bit clunky. In fact, when I bought this, my immediate impression was that this was an old game--maybe created in the 1990's. There isn't much freedom of movement, and while the artwork is beautiful, there aren't many things/objects to "interact" with other than the object needed to solve the puzzle. I liked the multiple endings, and it was a fun take on the post-apocalyptic scenario. It's definitely worth a buy if you want to lose a few hours, but I wouldn't say it's nearly as satisfying as other games out there.
