Between Horizons – A Sci-Fi Detective Adventure

This has all the ingredients of an otherwise good game, but the lack of manual saving quickly soured the experience for me. I don't enjoy stressing about getting it right on the first try. I have real life for that. If you don't mind being wrong, or repeating the game, or consulting guides, then you may not mind, but I do.

Overall the game was enjoyable. Pros: Story itself was fun to go through Puzzles were not too easy and were enjoyable to solve Cons: The fast travel system was not that good The way the camera bobs around can get annoying sometimes

I played this and Lacuna (an earlier, similar game by DigiTales) in the span of one weekend and loved them both. Whilst they are fundamentally similar as 2D point & click detective games, Between Horizons differs in a few ways.

Once again the gameplay consists of exploring to collect clues, interviewing people and cross-checking gathered evidence to submit your case.

Movement is also faster, which is very helpful because there is a lot of backtracking and you are not directed nearly as much in Between Horizons. Similarly to Lacuna I found the story very interesting and well-paced; I think I spent almost the exact same amount of time in both games (6.5 hours). The mysteries come together and get re…
