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 game with average story

Primordia is a good game, every puzzle is logical and sometimes there are several possibilities to solve them. Actually there are several endings to the game either. But I only gave it a 3 because it is too short. You start in the desert and then spend some times in the city. That's it. The story is not that interesting too. You guess what is happening in the middle of the game and the end doesn't tell you anything more. Actually you have to make your own end as the bad guy's motives turned out to be logical and you can question why you spent so much effort to defeat him. So I would say it is a good game but I couldn't really identify myself to the hero hence the average rating.

I loved it but....

After most their titles always received positive and good reviews,most of us probably have a high expectation of good quality games coming from them. So the question came to our mind isn't "Is it gonna be a good game or a bad one?".Instead we would ask "How good is it gonna be?".Well.... ==================================== One of my few complains about the game would be,maybe some would disagree but it felt like a very small world.I really felt restricted in the game.I expected a much larger area to explore in the game when I was in the city.And the city somehow just didn't felt as lively as it should be.I mean it looked great and the passing robot crowd did help,only it wasn't enough to make me feel like i'm traveling in a busy and bustling city of metropol. ============================== Second,the game was too SHORT.I felt like it was over too soon.And another is that I felt that the game was very anti-climatic.(Spoilers): The scene where Clarity told Haratio to escape while she hold off Scapper really felt anti-climatic with its lacks of sound effect and good script of animation sequence.The way it reveal its twist and end was really anti-climatic.The way crispin sacrifice himself,the twist that metropol killed the humans,the truth about Horus(well we saw that one coming)Most of the scene was just too emotionless,I understand that they were machine,but i'm pretty sure they're suppose to have emotion or most of the story wouldn't make sense.I just felt they didn't executed the scenes the right way. ==================================== The good thing that I can say about this game is that its choices of action and the consequences of its result,the many endings was nice even tough I was dissatisfied on how the way it ends,the plot was interesting as I would expect from wadjet eye,only it was very short.And I expected a bigger and larger area of exploring. =========================== I wanted to give this a game a 3,but i'm gonna give it a 4,because maybe I still haven't enjoyed this game to its fullest.There still are items which I haven't barter,maybe there are still choices that I haven't done and maybe more endings to unlock.I did enjoy this game but it has its flaws and I would recommend you play it too.
