This is one of the most fascinating concepts for a game. It takes place in the distance future after man has died out. "Life" continues, however, with humanity's last creation: the robot. After many years mankind begins to fade into myth, claimed by some to be made up, and revered by others as something akin to a god. You play through this game as Horatio, a robot hoping to repair the decrepit, and rusted world around him. I don't want to delve too deep, as exploring, and learning first-hand about the game's world is one beautiful aspect about playing this. As far as game play, this game is pretty much par for the course when it comes to Point+click games. If you are somebody who finds these types of games difficult, you can defer to your robot companion in order to get some helpful hints. That said, as I recall the solution to a puzzle is never explicitly told to you. I would classify this game as reasonably difficult. (Especially if you are like me and you try to avoid hints altogether). The art style is another fairly strong point to this game. Each scene is wonderfully detailed, and it is clear the artists took their time with each environment. The only complaint I can think of is a personal complaint. The color pallete is a little too brown, and dull at times. That said, it is personally understandable given the setting of the game, and the subject matter. In any case, I would absolutely recommend this game. Any minor faults I had were made up by the incredibly strong concept, like-able characters, and entertaining dialogue, which left me very happy with this purchase.
