### 5/5 — Can’t find third algae pod

*2023-08-15*

This game started out really fun and exciting, but now I’m stuck on the part where I have to put in the algae pods in the circles. I can print in two of them, but not the third one. But then for some reason I can only print the third one in the maintenance area, even though apparently I didn’t have the third one when trying to print it in the circle. I don’t know if this is a bug, or if I have to find the third algae pod somewhere (even though I have looked everywhere), it’s really annoying either way 😑
UPDATE: turns out I just had to put them in in a different order, really wish I found that out sooner

### 4/5 — Great game but extremely irritating glitches.

*2022-11-29, version 1.1*

Love the storyline! It definitely pulled me in and I could not stop playing! The controls are a bit off but I adapted. However, I literally fell through the floor and randomly ended up back in a previous part of the building. I took the time to get back to where the story was progressing. Then I got stuck in a spot I couldn’t move out of. I decided to restart the game and lost all my progress. Once again, I put in the effort to catch back up. I tried again, this time checking if I could manually save somehow or if I had to reach the next chapter, like a checkpoint. I made some decent progress considering I had mastered each puzzle from repeatedly completing them. But, of course, I got caught up in another glitch and crossed my fingers that my progression wasn’t wasted. Unfortunately upon restarting, I was back at the original checkpoint and I just turned it off. It really is fun to play! But to have to replay it over and over for a little more progress and only then to lose it all because of a game error…

### 3/5 — Fun with some issues

*2022-08-03, version 1.1*

A great narrative and immersive world. The controls and navigation, however, are what brought it to three stars for me. Often times I can’t figure out what to do, as the direction is so vague. “Find an ID” apparently meant “take a picture of a calendar.” I wouldn’t have known this unless I kept snapping pictures of everything I saw in multiple rooms. 

Also, some items need to be placed in such specific spots that anything less than 100% accuracy doesn’t allow you to progress, which is frustrating. I’d recommend the game for the beginning parts but I have trouble getting much further, and don’t know if it’s worth it past that point.

### 4/5 — All these negative reviews are Ewing dramatic

*2022-06-27, version 1.1*

I really enjoyed this game, and I understand why people have been frustrated with the controls, but i still managed to play through everything and had a lot of fun! I played on an iPad, and i did end up changing the camera sensitivity in the settings, which allowed me to move around a lot more quickly. Could be improved though.

### 1/5 — Cannot be finished on iPhone/iPad w/o controller

*2022-05-15, version 1.1*

Because the head and foot movements have to be controlled independently unless you are extremely good at this type of dual movement the last chapter of game cannot be complete. The game was designed for Xbox with game console where head and feet/forward momentum automatically track together, but when you have to do both separately it takes a lot more time. The final chapter has some tasks that are time intensive and are meant to be challenging with a controller, without one it is utterly impossible. And definitely was not taken into consideration when retooled for Apple Arcade; extremely frustrating and annoying!

### 2/5 — Couldn’t Get Past The First 2 Minutes

*2022-05-12, version 1.1*

While the story and gameplay REALLY look like something I would definitely be into, the bugs killed it for me.  I genuinely hope they go through the entire thing, fix all of it and then re-release it.  

I’m not sure about anyone else’s experience but for me, after the first initial opening scene there’s a staircase you need to walk up - probably 2 or so minutes into the game, while you’re trying to reach the “North Hall Emergency Exit.”  I just kept walking right *through* the staircase, like a ghost. Obviously not supposed to happen.  And thus I couldn’t move forward in the game at all.  😑

It’s really a shame because the storyline and voice acting, everything looked great.  Oh well.

### 5/5 — One of my favorites!

*2022-05-10, version 1.1*

I keep coming back to this game because I love escaping into this environment that has been masterfully created. I love exploring all the details and appreciate the immense effort that went into the production of this game. The story is great and keeps me on my toes. The controls are easy to use and quick to master. It was a pleasure figuring out these puzzles and a pleasure returning to them again and again.

### 5/5 — Lots of fun!

*2022-02-08, version 1.1*

I enjoyed this game. The plot kept me captivated and I was honestly disappointed when the game ended. I could have kept playing for many more hours of game play. 

I did get stuck a few times, falling into a position that I could not move, such as when going down a flight of stairs, my screen froze. When I closed the game and reopened it I was submitted to directly after the last completed task/beginning of task that I was working on when the screen froze. I did not lose anything crucial at the resetting of game play. 

I hope more games like this are created.

### 4/5 — Fairly decent work of Interactive Fiction

*2021-09-20, version 1.1*

Fans of Interactive Fiction will likely find this game enjoyable if the flaws can be overlooked.   First the positives - good voice acting, the immersive 3D first person atmosphere, storyline, and puzzles are fairly fresh and unique.  There’s really no way to die or lose, so puzzles and the story can be enjoyed at leisure.  The negative is that the controls are sluggish, imprecise, and at times confusing.  Overall I enjoyed this game when overlooking the flaws in the controls.

### 4/5 — Great story , 1 problem please fix ASAP

*2021-09-13, version 1.1*

It’s a great story , but 1 problem seems to be presenting itself and that every time I set the last mirror to hit the fuel cell or whatever it’s called with the blue laser the game without fail seems to crash and I have to start all over again! So far I haven’t been able to get past it.  Fix it please I’d like to move on in the game!! 
Other than that wish more thing laying around can be used and the it would be really great if you climb up and over things.  I like the game it’s cool .
