About The Crater

You are a moonbase worker serving a four year contract. Strange events start happening and it becomes more and more evident that someone is out to kill you. The only problem is, there are only two of you on the moon, separated in two different bases on each side of a crater. You cannot go to the opposite base and your colleague cannot go to yours. Is it your colleague who is trying to kill you or is there a third person hiding on the moon?

When playing The Crater, you will have to use the environment to solve puzzles and problems. Explore the Moonbase and the crater to unravel the mystery piece by piece.

Not recommended Apr 18, 2019
The physics are frustrating and poorly done, making the tasks you have to do each day tedious and nearly impossible. If you like stacking and re-stacking boxes after carrying them around the entire base in front of you (and sometimes having the POV stuck INSIDE of them), then jumping (only about half a foot off the ground), missing, knocking over boxes, re-stacking, jumping, etc., then this is the game for you. If you appreciate a game that doesn't base it's puzzles' requirements in badly executed physics, then take your money elsewhere.

You are working at alone at a space station as you unearth the mysterious death of the coworker you replaced. The game is about you finding clues to unrawle that mystery while solving puzzles. Along the search your existence at the space station gets more and more threatened. The voice acting is great, the dialogues well written and many times funny. It's not a long ride but it draws you in, makes you want to know more and charms you in the process. It's like a interactive thriller with jumpesque puzzles.

Somewhat short and simple, yet still a very enjoyable game. Great voice acting and amusing dialogue makes you want to continue play the game even when the puzzles gets quite hard. A good pick up if you want something to keep you entertained for a while.

While the story, voice acting and graphics are very appealing there is still alot to be desired. Non-Stop tapping when picking up boxes. Physics that cause boxes to fly up where you cannot reclaim them. Jumping and player pathing needs attention. Why can't i sprint? Object pickup needs work. Had lots of trouble picking up the wrench from under the magazines after i moved them. This game needs time and some more work. I look forward to coming back to it at a later date.

Final Fantasy XI price: what you pay, then keep paying

The Final Fantasy XI price is two numbers, and the subscription is the one that matters. Our tracked low, what the Ultimate Collection includes, and when buying at list is correct.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
