There simply arent enough games like this! Games where you don't know why or what or how. I made plenty of assumptions throughout but never had a handle on things and that's the kind of game which stands out for me. Leaves a little question mark open in your mind rather than 'done and dusted'.
Definitely going to keep an eye out for more from this Dev too.
I played this two times in a row, and there wasn't a dull minute to it. The main selling point is definitely the atmosphere, especially Omar Khan's audio and music and Kezia Burrows's up close and nuanced voice portrayal of Dr Emma Fisher. Great visuals too.
The gameplay is good in that it doesn't get in your way too much (one non-retriable timed puzzle early on, little 3D pixel hunting). The puzzles, which have you interface with various electronic systems and devices, highlight the story's human moments and vice versa, so you get that feeling of partaking in something real and epic sometimes. Alternating between the methodical pan-and-zoom of the station cameras and the more immersive first-person view from the microgravity guidance spheres (floating balls with a flashlight and navigational thrusters) makes for a nicely varied experience.
Exploration is rewarded in that collecting enough data nodes on a topic allows you to literally draw connections - this felt very satisfying, not least in the way it's displayed. Unless you plan on 100%ing that aspect, the replay value is that of watching the same film twice (which is not necessarily zero). I felt like I encountered one very minor bug in 1.17 where you can't progress in the story if you choose that moment to collect a particular audio log, but it's a matter of minutes replaying that passage- but that was it.
If you like sci-fi thrillers and enjoy story-based games even when they have no player choice, these are six hours you won't regret.
As many others, I got the game on Epic, since I didn't know it was coming to GOG, but I did play it in full. I guess I am one of the lucky ones, since I got NO bugs, just an intriguing story and cool gameplay mechanics. It's not super original but it's still really enjoyable to play through.
I watched the trailer and decided to get the game. Having completed it now, I think I got what I expected, based on that trailer, and more.
First off, I would not buy this unless it's on sale for $10 or less. The game is quite short with no replayability, which in itself is fine. Stories Untold was great for what it is. I think Observation is only "good" for what it is.
The sci-fi story is intriguing and you will want to know what's happens next, although it's a little confusing and open-ended. Which could be good or bad depending on your tastes.
There is definitely an initial novelty to the gameplay but it kind of wears off after the first few sections. It's repetitive but not insanely repetitive; helped by the fact that the game is short.
The puzzle gameplay isn't really going to test your intellect much. The hardest parts involve deciphering diagrams and things like that but even those were quite easy. There are also parts of the game which is basically pixel-hunting which isn't particularly fun and made me want to use a walkthrough to find things. That being said, the game does encourage you to explore and doesn't always hand-hold you, so that could be good if you're into that.
Even in March 2021, when I played this, there are still bugs. A couple bugs that I encountered include NPCs clipping through walls which forced me to guess where the NPC is and me not being able to proceed through a section because a cutscene triggered before it was supposed to, forcing a re-load of the save.
Speaking of saves, as others have mentioned, there is only one save slot and there is no way to manually save. So backup your save just in case (it's in your Appdata/LocalLow folder)
Overall: Decent, short adventure game with a good story & mediocre gameplay. Wish they would fix the bugs though. Also, please pay attention to the seizure warning if it affects you.
Жанр космо-триллера, фантастики и плюс приятная картинка. Сюжет, держащий в напряжении на протяжении всей игры. Одно из самых ярких игровых впечатлений за последние несколько лет
