The Turing Test

Turing Test is about Eva Turing waking from her cryogenic sleep. Her mission is to start when the base on Europa, a moon on Jupiter is completed by her team. T.O.M the project AI and guide wakes her. The base is ready but the team is missing. She shuttle lands on an icy Europa base. What starts as a simple search and rescue mission turns into a horrifying mystery of humans and machines, Control and moral ethics. Of humans controlling machines/AI or vice versa. As reasons of the vanishing of her team starts getting clear to her shock, the question of who is controlling whom and what game is being set up by her employees ISA gets darker. The story is decent graphics good. BUT the game is very boring. You have a gun but it is an Electro Magnetic Tool EMT gun to pull out or fire energy balls to open or close doors. The missing crew members have changed the base design leaving a series of puzzles that need both human and AI to solve. These are all engineering puzzles where you must use EMT guns, move things around, figure out sequences to open - close doors, use of cranes, magnetic pullers, lifts etc to move past the areas in the base towards the final area where the answers are. Imagine an Alien Isolation game but with no aliens to kill? Chapters 1-4 are boring. From 4 end things get interesting when Eva learns she has AI chips implanted in her allowing control of her actions and she can also enter use mechanical things like robots, drones, security cameras, cranes using that AI. So things get interesting as puzzles get complex and you use vast teleportation in objects to help activate switches. Working parallel merging with robots to unlock puzzles at other ends etc. You use massive destructive guns only thrice. Twice to break cranes, containers to clear your way. Last 3rd use is at game end in the epilogue where you make a moral choice for 1/3 possible endings. All 7 levels have a side quest a side area in each map at halfway point a small phase door in connecting corridor where you solve mechanisms to find the truth of the mystery of what happened to your team. Notes, objects, audio logs etc. The whole base is now a designed puzzle. Graphics is good. There is a Star Trek, Star Wars ship interior feel but its repetitive same old type rooms ♥♥♥ puzzles one area after another area. They should have throw in some gunfights with aliens. Its a Star Trek like walking puzzle game in end. The length of game does not fully do justice to story as there is nothing different to do thats what makes it boring and unsatisfactory. Still its worth 1 play if one has nothing better to do. The consistent blue, green, red lighting in the whole game rooms induces some motion sickness. It may take you 2 hours to 5-6 hours depending on how much you can move past rooms fast. Best buy cheap at sale.

Im not a fan of the Si-Fi genre, but i really like puzzle games so i thought i will give it a try. I didnt have any expectations when i started The Turing Test and didnt have a clue what it is about, but pretty quickly i was enthralled by the story and liked the puzzle design a lot! Playing as Ava Turing (space engineer) you are sent to a spacestation "europa" and your goal is to make it thru a lot of sectors with different puzzles to find your missing crew, guided by a AI named TOM. The puzzles are well designed and increase in difficulty step by step and all new mechanics are well introduced. You are playing thru 7 chapters with several sectors in each one + there is one bonus level in every chapter. The puzzles are not too easy, not too hard and i really enjoyed to solve them, but surprisingly for me i liked the story even more! Also the music during the game is enjoyable and the voice acting is great! I spent some time to translate a lot of stuff while reading diaries/documents etc + the game was running at the background for probably ~3h so i cant tell actually how long my playtime was, but for sure at least 4-5h less than 12h. Achievements are really easy to 100% in a single playthru, except one which you can quickly get after you have finished the game, cuz you can choose each chapter and even each sector to replay. Overall it was a great experience, thumbs up!

The Turing Test ist ein großartiges Puzzle-Spiel, das sich mit seinen cleveren Rätseln definitiv als Konkurrenz zu Portal behauptet. Die spannende und tiefgründige Geschichte regt zum Nachdenken an und macht das Erlebnis noch intensiver. Ein Muss für Fans von intelligenten Rätselspielen mit einer faszinierenden Story!

Одна из лучших последних головоломок, которые я проходил. История происходит на Европе, спутнике Юпитера. Далеко в будущем изобрели чипы, благодаря которым ИИ транслирует мысли прямо в голову - на это завязана большая часть игры. Игра напоминает Portal своими некоторыми механиками(мосты, кубы, кнопки), но есть и новые механики - управление камерами и энергией от шаров. Графика очень понравилась и сюжет неплохой. Я получил массу положительных эмоций и надеюсь вам тоже зайдёт.

Puzzle game + existential dread = fun to play

great 1st-person puzzler, and unlike portal and its ilk, no platforming or timing, so it's a lot less stressful. there's a single instance of 'use switch, sprint over bridge before it disappears' but it's doable. looks and sounds really good, interesting if not all that original story, don't miss it.

Sadly this game is Unplayable for People prone to Motion Sickness. Here is what induces Motion Sickness for me (and as i could read in the Forums for other people too): -Wayy to fast Player speed. -Very Strong Head Bobbing. -60 FPS Cap. -Very Very strong camera shake/head bob when climbing ladders and during other scenes like opening the hatch (I had too look away during the first ladder, otherwise it would have been instand throwup). -Disorienting object movement when picking something up to inspect it. The game looked so great but with these things it is Unplayable.
