NOTE! Game says unsupported for steamdeck, but I have had zero issues after 2 hours of playing. (I'll update if i run into any troubles). Didn't even need to mess with the controls! Amazing and creepy game so far, i'm loving it!
Игра очень понравилась, хоть реализация управления да и самого геймплея не идеально, но дял единственной игры в своём роде очень даже хорошо. Рекомендую если хочется поиграть в игра-кинцо с хорошей идеей. Как одноразовая игра пойдёт, может через 3-5 лет как сюжет забуду, снова поиграю

For the atmosphere alone this is a must play if you like the genre.
The game looks good and the gameplay is unconventional but the story is WEIRD and not for me. You would probably like it if you liked 2001 A Space Odyssey.
Having serious camera issues (like the character clipping out of the environment) in the final release is unforgivable; the gameplay is tedious, and the camera is extremely slow; you can't skip irrelevant cutscenes (zero replayability); the camera is terrible (and it gets even worse if you bump into or graze anything); the lighting is among the worst I've ever seen, you can literally get lost inside a tube because the camera is so bad, creating a disorienting effect where you graze something and lose your bearings; the puzzles are simple, but the sluggish camera makes them tedious and boring; I struggled to finish it because the interface is awful; the map is terrible; there are moments where you literally don't know where to go or what to do /not in the positive sense of "exploration") but because you might walk right past an object since you have to be at a very specific distance from it (neither too close nor too far), causing you to waste a lot of time searching for something you had literally just walked past; the story is generic, nothing special; controlling the camera is a nightmare, as is the interface for locating your drone; it's awful not knowing how to move from one area to another; it's terrible when an NPC bumps into you and gets you stuck, forcing a game restart because a bug has pinned you against a wall: etc., etc... I do not recommend it. I played it thinking it would be like *The Invincible*, but I didn't like it at all; I only finished it because I had paid for it. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
Nice art, but sucks as a game.
Good game supported by exceptional presentation and an intriguing plot. As a videogame, I wouldn't say that it was a lot of "fun," mainly because you are controlling cameras and solving simple puzzles. However, curiosity drove me forward and ultimately it was a memorable experience. 3/5 SAMs.
Though it was slow and the puzzles were not really puzzles, I really enjoyed how it played out. I'd say my biggest gripe was it was very unclear when and where autosave points were if you didn't have a load screen, so returning to it sometimes had me redoing a medium sized chunk. Worth the story, the atmosphere, and the concept of who the "player" get's to be.
Finished at launch on PS4. One of those games that's more 'experience' than game, but that experience is unique and a good one.
A little confusing, and some of the gameplay is a bit tedious; I spent at least an hour of my five on the game going back and forth in the station, trying to find the right door or installation. Despite that, the atmosphere is phenomenal, possibly the best I've seen in a game, and I was drawn in enough to play it to completion over the course of a few sessions. I would recommend it, just don't expect it to become your favorite game.
