Blind Spot

holy cow...this is an amazing title that we got blessed with! Let me first start by saying that I am really impressed, and you guys should be proud of the master piece that you have created. The colors, the look, the feel, the story are all exquisite. I typically don't write reviews that are this good towards the devs, as I am a pretty tough critic but WHEN you guys play this game you will know exactly what I am talking about. I am blown away with the feel and the graphics from the unity engine. Youtube Video (Some spoilers): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYcDIjxLAWE The story board is fantastic and a bit different ..the techniques used in creating the graphics and displays are powerful and heart warming! Three chapters that will take a while to complete each chapter, and perhaps more chapters in some updates in the future?! (My only issue is very small but it stuck out like a sore thumb, about 50 minutes into the game you come into a library and you must solve a complex puzzle in...

Blind Spot is an excellent first person puzzle/exploration game. I enjoyed the scenery and the diversity of the puzzles. The story is told through text descriptions of objects and rooms, as well as ongoing text messaging with an 'unknown number.' It is a story about family - loss and forgiveness. For me, it was a bit hard to put all the pieces together to have a clear picture of the narrative details but I came away with a general sense of what had happened. I struggled a bit with manipulating objects using the 'E' key and/or the mouse and continuously dropped things when I was carrying them by accident or attempting a specific placement. I think this is a function of the engine and not the actual game (or my own lack of coordination). It would have been nice to have a 'run' option but this is not a deal breaker because the game requires little or no backtracking. There is no explicit save but the game creates a checkpoint after each major puzzle so I never lost progress. There a...

Tough call because this one has some very strong features, including elegant graphics, good lighting, and a few clever puzzles. The problems are in some consistently annoying, even frustrating design decisions that could simply have been done differently and better with no more effort than this took as it is. We're thinking of arbitrary objects needing to be selected from sets of similar options, slots for things to go in that are hard to see, and a lot of unnecessary pixel hunting to locate click points. Also, there are quite a few bugs. None are show-stoppers (as far as we could see), but they did require a couple of restarts from checkpoints (or a whole chapter, once) to continue playing. There is a backstory, but it's kind of boring. You learn most of it from text messages you get from a cell phone you will carry throughout the game. Problem is, it goes "hum, hum" to let you know you need to get a message, and that's about as irritating as it is in real life when your phone sends ...

could have been a really nice game, but has a few flaws. walking is slow. irritatingly slow. some of the puzzles have no hints at all, so wondering what they want me to do. wildly click or walk through were the options.

Keeps crashing during a laser/mirror puzzle pretty early into the game. From the small bits I did see, the general game feels very unpolished, especially for the price: slow walking, repetitive sound effects, clunky interaction spots, and the bits of dialogue that portray the story don't feel natural at all.

I really enjoy puzzle games, but there is a difference between difficult puzzles, and tedius ones. Sadly, the movement speed, pacing, slapdash storytelling / bad translations mixed with puzzles that are more busy work than brain work made me finally give up with the annoyance.

Boring, not fun. Bailed after 23 minutes. You walked. So. Slow. First 20 minutes can be summed up as following a glowing ball and looking for hotspots. Puzzles felt tedious. Story didn't grab my interest.

[u]2020 Speedy Review Cleanup[/u] The developers of [i]Blind Spot[/i] know how to make nice graphics and an intriguing environment. You are essentially solving puzzles throughout a mansion and trying to uncover a story about a family behind all of it. On the positive side, there is enough visual design and complex scenes to make you want to see where this is all going. On the negative side, the developers try to tell the story through text messaging as well and it gets overly convoluted. Essentially, by the end of the game, you might not even have an idea of what happened. There's multiple endings, though after watching a video on them, I don't think any of them make complete sense. Yet I think the journey outweighed the destination in this game. The puzzles and the scenes/areas I encountered (even with it being set inside of a mansion) stuck with me and made it intriguing enough to keep playing. A couple of other downsides are that the developers limit your walking speed to slower...

This was an interesting game. You solve various puzzles that can be anything. Some were tricky and some were chores, literally. I found this amusing. The story is actually kinda creepy with how you figure out whats going on, some hidden undertones here. 10/10

A bit of walking around trying to figure out what to do next, seems like a good animation studio without a solid idea for how to create an engaging game.
