The Turing Test

[h1]Philosophisches Puzzle[/h1] [i]The Turing Test[/i] bietet eine Menge Rätsel - teilweise auch recht schwere - die einen öfters zwingen, bekannte Denkmuster zu durchbrechen und neue Pfade zu beschreiten, um zur Lösung zu gelangen. Das Ganze wird unterlegt mit einer Story, die - wenn auch nicht besonders neu oder packend - doch recht interessant ist, und sich schlussendlich mit der Frage beschäftigt, was Menschlichkeit ausmacht, ganz im Sinne des Titels. Entspannt und tiefsinnig.

A bit tedious but fun portal-esque puzzle game with easy achievements.

На разок пойдёт. Головоломки не сказать что сложные, но и обучения нет, просто задачи со временем усложняются. 7 тестовых камер из 10.

If there was a neutral option, I would select that, but since I have to choose between yes or no, I'm going to have to say no. For starters, the game is way too easy (the only time I was really having fun with it was with the achievement levels and a few levels near the end), which is a big turn-off for me as that's the main reason I play these things. The arguments about consiousness and morality start off being reasonable, if somewhat generic, but devolve into basically nonsense over the course of the game in order to force a binary choice ending on you. Ava's arguments eventually turn into 'nuh-uh' to everything TOM says, and TOM starts making arguments that are less and less logical as it goes on as well. The voice acting is admittedly pretty good, but voice acting alone cannot carry a game. Also, the lack of subtitles on audio logs is frustratingly ridiculous. I'm not hard of hearing, but those things are just plain unlistenable sometimes.

I've just recently started playing The Talos Principle, and it reminded me so much of this game, in a very good way. So I guess it's time to review it. The puzzles in this game grow to be real head-scratchers, and there are more than enough of them to sink your teeth into. The puzzles start very simple, and the concept/goal of them never really changes, but new iterations and mechanics are trickled in right up until the end of the game, and really push the limit of the original core concept. But what really stuck with me about this game was the narrative. [spoiler] Look, even by saying "There's a big twist", that's basically going to spoil everything anyway. The game is called "The Turing Test". If you know anything about that term, the "twist" will come as no surprise to you. But it absolutely got me. [/spoiler] Rarely has my jaw involuntarily fallen open during a game, but this was one of those times. There are multiple endings, but I found each of them quite impactful, and kept me thinking long after I finished playing.

网上有字幕的汉化补丁。这是一个很像传送门的游戏，想法还不错，但是难度不算太高。

great story

A nice game, especially since we are living the years of artificial intelligence and somehow it will make you think about life, logic and humanity. Different dynamics of the puzzles but all simple, well-constructed music and graphics. I really appreciated that through the rooms you could glimpse a person with whom it is impossible to interact and it made me think of Half Life's G-Man.
