Beautiful, sorrow and loss packed
I really enjoyed this one as any other Wadjet Eye game, but this one really stood out with it's atmosphere, with it's weird constructions. Puzzles were very logical and straightforward if you thought about it, except one, the phone number one, but you can always get hints if you are stuck. Can't wait what's next from these guys :)

A Game about Grief
"...but aren't they all?" - Jim Sterling This is yet another game about someone struggling through grief via an internal struggle and surreal imagery. If you like that sort of thing, you'll probably like this game, though it does occasionally forget that this is all in someone's head and veers into some fascinating sci-fi and horror imagery. As a Point-and-Click, it's competent. I only had to check a guide once or twice to progress, and when I did, the answer was obvious enough that I felt dumb for checking a guide, so I never got stuck and "moon logic" was kept to a minimum. It is, however, a bit short and repetitive. The second half is rhymes with the first half, and to me, a lot of the appeal of a point and click is unlocking new situations and new puzzles, new parts of the world. This had pretty few things to unlock. It has nice enough art, when you do go into a particularly weird situation. It's a fine and serviceable adventure. It's not one of the greats, but I've definitely played worse. It's fine.

One of the Best
A well written story of loss, identity, desire, fear of failure and probably a whole lot more. Top tier psychological horror. A well flowing puzzle design, once you get going it's hard to stop. A surreal, beksinski-esque intrapsychical world that intrigues at every turn. A g*****n Lacan reference! What more can you hope for? Currently at the last stretch of my second playthrough.

Great sick point+click
I love the mood this game sets, also that the puzzles were engaging and varied big time. There are lots of interesting thoughts to pick up, even from the developer commentary. I also loved the grapics stile and the effects/animations, so overall it was a really nice experience for me. It could be a cool game for anyone who liked a bit darker mood and psychological themes.

What a sweet experience
First of all, a disclaimer: I did instabuy Strangeland because Primordia is one of the best point & click adventures I've ever played. For what it's worth, I don't particularly recommend Strangeland if you enjoyed Primordia: other than the (gorgeous) art style and some (great) writing on Mark Yohalem's part, they're really not that similar, even in terms of pure gameplay: Primordia plays more like your regular old-school point & click, whereas Strangeland is shorter, more streamlined and admittedly more about the experience, the message, making the player feel like part of the engrossing narrative. Gameplay-wise, it's your typical point & click. Puzzle solutions do have multiple approaches, which is great, since the game accommodates pretty much every kind of player. It also has one of the best in-game hint systems, if I say so myself. Think a less on the nose version of Thimbleweed Park's payphone line (again, experimenting with the game instead of relying solely on the hint system tends to be more rewarding, not only for the obvious accomplishment reasons, but because puzzles have multiple solutions and approaches). Some people will think the game is too "pseudo", and that's OK. No game is for everyone, you're not a better or worse person/gamer if you love or hate this kind of game, but do be advised it IS a game that's built more like a short experience with A LOT of literature, mythology and psychology in it (there's an Annotation Mode, in case you want an insight into all of the references and hidden meanings -- for obvious reasons, I don't recommend it on your first playthrough). In terms of length, YMMV depending on how familiar you are with this genre of games; a first playthrough took me ten minutes short of 5 hours, but I wouldn't necessarily say I've "finished" it, since there's a lot of stuff I missed, and Strangeland is clearly built around us playing it at least two or three times. All in all, wholeheartedly recommended
