How it feels

A calm, contemplative adventure through a space mystery, with slow puzzle-solving and an emphasis on narrative exploration.

What players say

Players compare it to the Myst series, praising the sci-fi setting and voice acting but split on controls, some find the node-based movement and mouse acceleration clunky and slow, while others enjoy the classic point-and-click style. Puzzles are generally described as fair, though a few reviewers note obscure hotspots and moments of confusion.
