Maybe CYAN's magnum opus

I never thought I'd get the same feelings I had playing MYST and the rest of the MYST series. That feeling of being lost, 'stuck'...what game makes you feel 'stuck' and 'lost' anymore. Well, this game managed to do it! Simply put, if you love MYST, you will love this game and I'd jump right in and not read more. What makes these kinds of games special to me? Well thought out puzzles, riddles, etc. There is nothing more fun than being lost in a world and having no idea what to do. This kind of gaming experience simply does not exist in other genres and few game makers know how to do these kinds of games just right. It's not just merely a walking simulator. A lot of 'puzzle' games in the 2010s era have incredibly simple puzzles and you're just walking through the story. Not here. It's an escape from your own world into a breath-taking fantasy. I can play a game like this for hours and just be engrossed in it, left to roam the landscape in search of solving whatever puzzle I am stuck on. The puzzles are completely fair and well-made. I play a lot of puzzle games and want something challenging. It is clear immerse thought, testing, and design went into everything you need to do in the game. But I will note, I determine fair in the sense that if you make logical decisions and use good problem solving skills, you should be able to solve the puzzle. There is hint support in-game but I did not use any hints from anywhere. I'd really caution you to avoid hints; it ruins games like this too easily. Ask friends for small nudges after you've been stuck for days. I think most people could handle this game though. If you're the kind of person who opens hint books 5 minutes into a game, you probably won't enjoy this; you likely didn't enjoy MYST either. Overall I am beyond impressed with what they made here and I am glad I had the opportunity to play it finally! Games are simply just not made like this often and I would recommend picking this up!

Beautiful adventure game

I haven't finished the game but I'm loving it so far. The game in a nutshell: you roam around in a strange alien world, gathering clues and solving puzzles by interacting with the environment and various machines and crazy alien contraptions. Why are you here doing this? What is "here"? And where is everyone else? No idea! Experimentation and exploration and piecing the story together are what the game is about. The game is totally chill. There's no tutorial and you really don't need one because the controls are ultra basic, there's no inventory management and there's zero pressure to do anything, so you can just poke around at your own pace. It is also absolutely gorgeous. Often I just have to stop and admire the scenery because it's just fantastic. The audio is also beautiful. It's quite an awe-inspiring experience if you allow yourself to be immersed. The puzzles so far have been fine, but kind on the easy side. They are more laborious than difficult (require a lot of setup or travel). So far, there hasn't been any dumb "find the pixel" or "guess what the developers were thinking" puzzle, which is nice. The game does have two flaws which don't ruin it, but make it a bit frustrating: 1. You have to walk/run/drive A LOT. Like, several minutes to go from A to B sometimes. There really should be some kind of "fast travel" mechanic; 2. There are some puzzles which involve you teleporting around a bunch of times to solve a puzzle. Every time you do that, the game has to load for like 10 seconds (on my modest hardware). This is super annoying. I shudder to think what that feels like with less powerful hardware. Without those 2 flaws, it would be an easy 5 stars. This way, I have to ding one star because those issues just cause needless frustration (not enough to quit, but enough to be slightly miffed). But in the grand scheme of things, the flaws are minor. This is a fine adventure game and it is breathtakingly beautiful. I recommend it.

Переходы и загрузки..

Игра была бы намного приятнее если бы разработчики не стали исскуственно затягивать игры - чем дальше тем сильнее это заметно, вершина идиотизма - это лабиринт в джунглях для прохождения которого нужно минимум 10 загрузок из одной локации в другую, вот такой "лайвхак" как занять игрока минимум на час...

Beautiful however a bit frustrating

Great visuals, atmosphere, music and story. The puzzles are sometimes really far fetched, and a lot of backtracking is involved. However still engaging enough to see it through. +Graphics +Story +Puzzles +Music +Atmosphere -Backtracking -Far fetched logic in some puzzles -Maze.. I recommend this game.

Can't rebind keys

You cannot rebind keys and are stuck with WASD keys. Tough luck if you have another keyboard layout like me... Thus, unplayable game on my side.
