Amazing!

This is a must play, everything about is perfect, the style, the sound track, how the game interacts with the PX1 is amazing, the gameplay is great, the puzzle are challenging but not to the point where it’s not fun anymore. This game had a great story that was well explained and incredible. Give this game a try, it doesn’t take long to beat and it’s fun the whole way through.

Great

Amazing game, very nice story… Love that 💚

“Kid cosmo is your friend”

Loved the follow up to the movie

I love this so much

I love that we got a backstory for Chris and Michelle through this game, and all the little details like the lighting on the PX-1 and covering the speaker to silence the audio were so cool. I also enjoyed the soundtrack a LOT (I absolutely love music). I’m so glad that a game was actually made for The Electric State. The movie deserves more appreciation than it gets in my opinion.
