Primordia

[h1]8.5/10[/h1] *Review is for Linux(system specs below)* I really enjoyed this game for the most part. The only issue I had was scrolling through text in the UI couldn't be done with the mousewheel; I think this might have been a limitation of the AGS Engine used to create it. It had nice stylistic art, non-intrusive background music(it wasn't too [i]busy[/i]), the voice-acting was really good, and the puzzles were great. There wasn't a lot of hand-holding. I didn't realize there was an Auto-Hint system(which I didn't realize was On by default), but the [i]hints[/i] were mostly obscure, so they didn't spoil any puzzles for me; many modern games don't seem to know [i]how[/i] to use [i]subtle[/i] hints, and all but scream the answer to you, or use flashing lights to point to where you need to go next, rather than let you explore your environment. Some of the puzzles are very challenging, and take patience to solve, but I believe that's what makes a good [i]Point & Click[/i] game, and this is one of them. The story is developed well, and the voice-acting, along with the background music, provide an atmospheric environment which is pleasantly immersive. This may …

An absolutely perfect adventure game

It starts off as the best adventure game I've ever played. Unfortunately, once you get to [spoiler]Metropol[/spoiler] it gets overwhelmed with typical adventure game ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and becomes so plot heavy that I almost didn't bother finishing it... Feels rushed, really. The artwork, however, is consistently great throughout, and [i]most[/i] of the voice acting is top tier. The worldbuilding is fantastic with the perfect amount of tongue-in-cheek.

A charming spiritual successor to Beneath A Steel Sky with an art style reminiscent of HR Geiger

My dear Primordia: A really engaging storyline, combined with fantastic ambientation and voice acting, delivers a memorable post-apocalyptic, robotic narrative. I really loved the story; as a huge fan of this type of narrative, it was not hard for me to be delighted with devout robots quizzing me about the gods/humans/creators from the past. I also enjoyed the quirky side characters and really appreciated the way the story develops; especially the city part was fantastic. My only critique to this game was that I had to search quite a few times for the answers to certain puzzles, I understand that in this genre of point and click games you sometimes have to spend quite a bit of time hovering your mouse and clicking everything to see if something works but in my opinion a lot of puzzles should have been a bit more hinted or aproached differently to facilitate gameplay. All this being said, and considering that I felt frustrated while I usually tend to enjoy difficulty in games, it’s probably a bit too much. Again, I wish puzzles were approached in a different way, especially because I was really into the story, and having to look up the answer or brute-forcing combinations …

Eski usül Point& Click oyun formülü, dönemin teknik sınırlarının bir eseriydi. Bu devirde kalkıp da bu teknik problemleri romantize edip ekranda piksel avı yapmayalım. İlginç bir öykü, çekici karakterler ve sanatçının anlatmak istediği bir derdi var gibi ama ben bu yapay teknik çileyi çekemem.
