An unbound utopia for research, independent from state and isolated from the gaze of society. Free to push the boundaries of matter and time. Journalist Rose Archer steps aboard the Helios in search of her sister Ada. She quickly discovers not all is as it seems. Grand halls stand empty. The stench of rotting flesh lingers in the air. Silence. A single word is painted across the entrance… QUARANTINE!

✦ AI summary
Close To The Sun is a steampunk walking simulator with good atmosphere and graphics that offers a brief 5-10 hour experience, though players have mixed reactions to its puzzle content and technical performance. Fans praise the aesthetic and story, but critics note that the game consists mainly of walking and exploration with minimal challenging puzzles, and some report significant technical issues including crashes and motion sickness. The game appears best suited for players seeking a relaxed, story-driven experience rather than substantial puzzle-solving challenges.
Pretty sweet steampunk style walking simulator with light horror elements. Nice graphics, the sound levels feels a bit unbalanced bit it is probably artistic decision. Puzzles a just few and very easy. All in all I enjoyed these 10 hours (to 100%, otherwise it is 5-6 hours).1 found this helpful
this game sucks it keeps closing before even finishing the first cutscnce a waste of money
i cannot and will never finish this game, i played a hour and a half and its given me the worst headache ive ever had in my life
Great game and atmosphere. well worth a play.
Not really much of a puzzle game, like the Da Vinci series, the length of the puzzle aspect is finding codes/patterns to enter into a machine. Other than that 80% of the time is walking, 5% is running, 10% is looking for the answer to a machine, and 5 % is spent on Looking for where to go. a bit disappointing on my end. If you're looking for an easy casual game with a decent story this game might be for you. But if you're wanting any kind of challenge in solving riddles/puzzles, i'd look elsewhere.
Loved it. Wished they would make more games like this!
