What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
This experimental game receives mixed reactions, with some players appreciating its unconventional, artistic approach and historical significance as a thought-provoking piece, while others find it not to their taste or are frustrated by significant technical issues including bugs in early missions and problems closing the application. Despite its rough state, those who engage with its 45-minute runtime and boundary-pushing design find it genuinely interesting and unique.
A simultaneously beautiful and horrible mess of a game that puts concept before design. Deus Ex Machina manages to feel strangely playable while crudely violating most of our expectations for video games. The original 1984 presentation remains a visual treat, with Mel Croucher’s ridiculous narrative and soundtrack carrying the game through its simple but varied sequences. My absolute favorite will always be the sperm stage. The commentary is mostly Mel explaining the gameplay because he wanted you to buy his book about the game’s development. It’s wholly possible the rerelease was to hype the book, but I doubt either performed very well. I’d recommended buying Deus Ex Machina at full price.2 found this helpful
This game is totally broken. The very first mission is bugged and there is no restart, pause or anything. Is full of technical bugs and issues. The game doesn't even close from steam. Is a shame. Maybe in the future i can change my review if the issues are solved2 found this helpful
Not really my thing.
Very Unorthodox and artsy game that has genuine historical value and can be something nice to play for those who are into experimental boundry pushing titles that take about 45 minutes.
i like it :) it's very weird
this truly is... the greatest game youve never played......
