About TARTARUS


About the game :
In the year of 2230, Mining and Research vessel Tartarus (MRS TARTARUS 220478) activates the security protocol near Neptune without any sign. The only chance for crew to survive is to reach the Bridge and restart all systems one by one before the ship crashes into Neptune. We are playing as Cooper(cook and miner of the ship) who has no education or training about electronics or pilotage; to overcome this, vessels engineer ''Andrews'' is helping us as much as he can. Though it's not as easy as it sounds...

Players are divided on this game. While some appreciate the effort put into its setting and enjoy the challenging puzzles, others criticize the outdated text-only interface and encounter severe technical issues like crashes that make the game unplayable. Common complaints center on poor optimization and an uninviting presentation style, though those who can get past these problems report having a reasonably fun experience despite its flaws.
I should like this because I love these type of games. Unfortunately this is really bad, I do not recommend playing this.1 found this helpful
I kept wanting to type cd instead of sf on the command line. My brain was like “please let me just change directories” and the game was like “nope, suffer.”
Quit hard puzzles that i was need a pencil and notes... I did not like the end of the game but overall i was have fun.
7.6/10
Game is crashing after the 30 secs after the launching, no matter if I'm in the actual game or in the main menu. I have RTX4080, 32RAM, i7-14700. Can't even find a solution online to fix this
If I wanted to use a text-only interface to run a computer, I could do that in my daily life. (I do not want to do that.) I like the setting and environment, for what it's worth, and I don't regret the purchase because you've clearly put in some effort and you should get credit for that, but I'm never going to play this again.
