Ratings and reviews

This game looks absolutely phenomenal so far! The music and the art style are on point. Like.. I'm surprised how invested I am in the story. The gameplay is what you'd expect. Although exploring can be a lot of fun sometimes. I'm also considering buying one of the smaller bundles. You want to support good storytelling like this.

This is a strange product. A lot of effort clearly went into making it - it runs smoothly, the artwork and soundtrack are well crafted, the try-and-buy sales model is fair - but what it is supposed to be is something of a mystery. Is it a game? Well, no, not really: There are no decisions, no real choices, no thought required. Is it a story? Not one that engages or makes any sense. The world-building is an inchoate mishmash of sf and fantasy tropes, the dialogue tedious, whiny and repetitive.

Not bad but ... The gameplay is designed in such a way that it restricts the players actions too much. Further more I find the dialogs a bit ... well, senseless and negative. That could have been designed a bit better. Additionally the controls are not so well designed: The round circle moves with your finger so that if you move your finger too far and then move it back you will lose the steerindirection. The graphical design is quite okay but because of this I'd not recommend the game.
