Destination Primus Vita - Ep. 1

I just popped into the game for a short time on my lunch to check it out and so far so good. The art style seems really nice with some pretty cool sets. I already encountered a few puzzles that were not too teribly challenging so I am hoping that they continue to get more involved. The premise of the story seems really good and the voice acting so far has been good. It also ran really smooth on my pc at work that is a lower spec pc, and I have not seen any bugs or glitchs so far. I did not recieve this game for free and decieded to take the chance considering the price. The start of the game seems really good so hopefully more people take the plunge and support indie devs. I will update my review once I play more. Update: Finished this first chapter and overall this is a pretty good game. I did not have any bugs or glitches, the voice acting is good and the sets are interesting. It was nice getting to know the character through the interactions with her memories and people. The only t...

I did not like it. Story, characters, puzzles were all lost on me.

Really nice game.. and I do recommend it.. But.. there will never be an episode 2. The game has been abandoned. but the only bugs in the game are a few achivements, no biggy.. but they will never be fixed.

Sorry just too annoying for words. I do like the graphics and the reality bending sets. But the rest not so much. The Labyrinth sections were the final straw. They are an exercise in frustration.

First things first - the achievements are broken and will never be fixed. On the good side, unique graphical approach, clue-finding, object-finding, puzzles, relationships, and team building. If they worked, the achievements would have been appropriate and somewhat challenging. Too bad the future episodes won;t be made. Company dissolved.

An excellently made narrative, with time-friendly puzzle solving, good production values, and a bite-size presentation you can wrap up in a few hours. The characters are well thought out, and I look forward to future episodes focused on other crewmembers. It makes sense that to take advanatage of the downtime during cryosleep, that an AI would help the crew work through their psychological issues, and train them for the coming mission. I believe that the devteam involved in this production has all the assets and abilities at their disposal to see this project through the other episodes and is worth the investment of your money and time. Bravo.

Great Story. Difficult but rewarding puzzles!

TL;DR: buyer beware, it's unfinished, abandoned, apparently rushed and posing for something it is not in large parts. But if you like puzzlers take it for granted there's aplenty and I am not judging its quality in that regard as I am not into that sort of pastime. This game reminds me of "Elea" that I finished some months ago and that is the first and foremost difference: I managed to finish "Elea" despite its convoluted nature and unfinished state unlikely to be ever completed whereas I almost rage quit that one. "Almost" meaning I did quit, but with a sigh of relief rather than anything else in the end. After a brief close encounter with a dev I tried to approach whtat's left of the game with an open mind, but in the end I had neither patience to carry on nor was interested to see what next trick does this puzzler have to throw at me to knock me off-balance. Since it is a puzzler with a very shallow and absurd story behind posing as science-fiction whereas any scientific knowled...

Whoaa, I just finished this first chapter and I have to say that I am impressed. And what an emotional ending! I don't often buy 1st chapters of a unfinished game, but I love sci-fi stories, I gave it a try and I don't regret it. It was totally worth it. And even if the game ends up unfinished, it was still worth playing it as this chapter told its own story. Puzzles are well balanced, not too easy, not too difficult, and fit well with the story. Uncovering the game world was fun. Each character unique personality, story and relationship with the main character Austin, is well told with a good degree of realism. And the game ran flawlessly on my window 7 laptop, nice! Still some of the achievements appear to be broken, but oh well, who cares... I am looking forward to the next chapter, even if I think it might be hard to do as well as this one, we'll see!

Reluctant thumbs up. I mean for a $1.50 you are getting something that has good design, good art, good style, good story, and good characters. The big reveal at the end for why Austin is the way she is was really well executed. I definitely enjoyed my two hours with the game. Why reluctant thumbs up though? User interface is very clunky with odd button mapping, ran into a few bugs on a couple of the puzzles, couldnt do the quicktime events with a controller (had to get back onto the keyboard to complete those), and there is basically no challenge with the puzzles. Would be better to brand this as a walking simulator rather than a puzzle game.
