How it feels

A stark, minimalist puzzle adventure where you move through a black void solving cryptic logic puzzles in a lonely, surreal atmosphere.

What players say

Players praise the faithful remasters of the first two Gateway games, which hold up as short, nostalgic point-and-click adventures. But nearly all agree the third entry is a letdown, relying almost entirely on repetitive floor tile puzzles that frustrate rather than delight. Many say it is worth buying only for the first two games.
