  • Myst...erious

    It's a great start, good controls, smooth play.
    We'll see.
  • Great Start

    Captures the feel of Myst better than most iOS adventure games. Beautiful graphics, intuitive controls. Would have liked the tiniest hint of story, but still hooked enough to play future episodes.
  • Good

    Like everyone is pretty much mentioning the game itself is good and promising, but they could have added more puzzles before the "to be continued " like maybe 5 all together rather than just one, but the game was a fun and alright game I guess just way to short. And not that much guidance, but I guess I understand why not there's only one puzzle.

  • If you love Myst and Riven ...

    ... you'll love this. You get to wander through a landscape alone except for the strange and beautiful alien technology which you have to work out how to use in order to progress in the game. Wear headphones; the ambient sounds really take you into the world of verdant peace and humming insects in the sun, and there's no music to distract you from the 'thereness' of the resulting effect. The perfect antidote to a chaotic, busy lifestyle.

  • Very short, not very interesting

    There are some truly great games like this out there, so I have to consider that when rating this just 2 stars. This is essentially just one puzzle. The puzzle is not as challenging as the controls, it's essentially like you are a rat in a maze and performing one rote action after another. Very limited interaction with the environment. There is a rope hanging from a wall that is really out of place in this stark environment - you can't climb it or anything. I mention it because there are so few items in the environment that it is odd to have this random rope. Maybe it is part of the next installment? Annoying part: It is possible to get into the pen by falling off a ledge, but once in you cannot get out unless you have previously opened the door from the outside, so you must start a new game in order to continue. The game took me 10 minutes after I restarted. This would be a fine part of a larger game, but it does need more interest and more interactive potential.I thank all game designers in this type of game. I appreciate the effort.

  • Nicely designed

    I love games like this and they are few and far between. Stunning graphics, short but interesting puzzle adventure.

    Great game! VERY reminiscent of Myst. Found one bug. In the lower area where you start the game, I went through the tunnel up to the ledge, the kept going and went on the rocks. The game ignored the gap in the rocks and let me into the upper area where I became trapped. Had to reset the game.
  • Very nice

    A nice short puzzle, good for beginners to the open area puzzle genre.
  • Disappointed...

    Well when I first saw this game I was like
    "Wow what great graphics!" Well it does have good graphics but not a very clear point. Even the description for this game isn't very clear! All you do is run around pulling triggers (maybe even some you already pushed) and hoping your doing the right thing. There's no tutorial, no clear way to play, or a point. So 1 star :/

  • Good but

    The game was really good, to control are amazing, the graphics too. But the difficulty of a game was lame. I literally finished the game in 10 minutes. And I didn't felt challenged at any point. You could improve the difficulty of the puzzles. Other than that looks like a really promising game.
