Description
What happened to the humans? Set in a post-apocalyptic world strewn with cast-off pieces of machinery, Primordia tells the story of Horatio Nullbuilt, who finds his peaceful existence threatened when a rogue robot steals his power core—the sole source of energy fueling his ship and keeping him alive. To recover it, the robot and his companion, Crispin, must leave behind their idyllic home for Metropol, the city of glass and light. Their quest to reclaim what has been taken away will lead Horatio to unexpected discoveries about his origins—and a new understanding of the humans who walked the earth before him.

  • Puzzles that emphasize logical thinking and exploration rather than trial and error or pointless backtracking.
  • A streamlined interface, player-friendly design combined with the challenge and depth of the classics.
  • Features over fifty hand-drawn rooms to explore, dozens of distinctive characters to meet, and gorgeous painted cutscenes to soak in.

Good story, mixed quality, short

I just finished the game. I used a walk through on some occasions because some of the puzzles are honestly not very obvious. The story itself is a retelling of the human condition in the view of robots instead of humans. It is well told and pretty good voiced. I was quite astounded that actually all of the dialogue was voice acted. The world is well put together but small. Very small. Actually the whole game is really short. Especially compared to something like Monkey Island. Technically the graphics are adequate. But the lack of a proper resolution is a bit disappointing. Sound and music is quite good though.

Very good Point&click

I loved the story and I like gameplay. It feels a little like "Beneath a steel sky" It is short (12 hs).

Cyberpunk okayness

So you played and loved beneath a steal sky. A post apocalyptic world holding many wonders. Quirky banter of your robotic buddy. A city waiting to be explored. Well this is actually almost the same except less good. A very fine game still, but a lesser experience than BASS.

Unnaturally pixelated

Soundtrack and overall atmosphere are nice, But artificially downgraded picture looks odd. Fonts become ugly and barely readable. And it turns some puzzles into pixel-hunting mess. "increase resolution" option would be a savior.
