The Station

Outrageously short walking sim. Heck, if you don't stop around to read everything and investigate every corner you will finish it within the refund window. Hah! 1.50 was a fair price and I can actually recomend it for that much. If you like Sci-Fi and some mystery experience/investigation then go ahead. It's more of a virtual experience than game. Puzzles were incredibly simple and easy but somewhat satisfactory and didn't break the pace. Story is servicable but nothing special. You'll figure out the "twist" really fast, with more and more obvious clues as you keep on exploring. It would have worked 10, 15 years ago but at this point I am just tired of self-hating oikophobes taking over the entertainment industry. Rather than self-reflect or feel cathartic, I was like "eh, it's this same thing all over again." Sorry writers, you're not profound; you're just preachy and pretentious. The "show, don't tell" approach that was promised kinda delivered in a way. The locations and rooms managed to tell a story. There are audiologs and text notes but, compared to other games, they are sparse. The attempt was appreciated but it felt like that the devs just decided not to overload the place with audio logs and notes like everyone else does, and just that alone did a lot. For 1.50 go ahead. Otherwise, you absolutely don't need it in your life. But the investigation and exploration itself was pleasant, even though there was no sense of any danger, dread or unease you'd expect from a derelict space station. There are few scripted "moments" but I never felt watched, stalked or pursued (yes, I noticed the cameras tracking me). It's okay. For 1.50. To be fair, if it went on any longer it risked falling off in quality.

Un juego extremadamente corto, pero con un final que tiene un giro argumental bastante interesante e inesperado. Parece una historia sacada de La Dimensión Desconocida. ¿Recomendado? Solo si está en rebaja. No porque no sea bueno, sino porque su precio original es muy alto para apenas dos horas de juego.

Неоднозначно хорошая, есть пара интересных пазлов, какая то атмосфера... Но за эту цену это слишком короткая игра.
