The combat was so-so until the very end. I spent forever trying to drag myself out of the bowels of the facility. Good story, and I loved the voice acting!

Incredibly impressive for a game made by 4 people. I am super excited to play the DLC. The only quarrel I have with the game is there is extremely little guidance on the puzzles. HOWEVER, I do understand this is a puzzle game, and I am also rather dumb. I just wish there was at least a minor clue system or something for the pea brains like me who had to repeatedly fall back on public guides to proceed.

Returning to The Fall reminds me of how games can challenge us in ways beyond just reflexes by forcing us to confront and question our own perspectives.

A classic story about the boundaries and personhood of AI. The puzzles are a little obtuse, the controls a little stiff and awkward, but the narrative still hits its mark after eleven years.

Really entertaining point-and-click adventure. It has a unique gameplay that differentiates it from any other game of its genre. The narrative was the best part. The mystery and intrigue are managed with seemingly expert hands. I love Sci-fi, so I'm biased, but the setting was super cool. Even though the premise seems generic, the story ends up being as distinctive as its gameplay. The difficulty of the puzzles might be my only problem. In general, it's pretty satisfactory, but there are some spikes in some puzzles that become insurmountable. I had to use a guide to get through. The thing is, the story had me so interested that I didn't really care. There are some surprisingly funny bits too. Check this one out!
