    i tried the demo, it's a bit frustrating with the entire click-everywhere-to-find-solution puzzles. other than that, it's nothing like you expect. not that i expected anything...

    Finished it!!

    It took me around 6 hours to finish, some stuff was damn hard; the puzzle where you have to shut down the water for example, holycrapppp, i even had to draw a plan of the thing and cut it by zones to find the solution. The tic tac toe player went on my nerves a bit too .

    But really i don't have anything negative to say about the game, the puzzles weren't frustrating but rather challenging, sometimes they trick you by thinking you are on the good track when the answer lies somewhere else and when you figure that out you tell to yourself : "what a bunch of bastards";

    What i found really cool too is that you often find yourself in front of a little system and have to figure out how it works, like the bomb ( i finished the puzzle 6 seconds before the boom !!! haha)

    And of course the art (both the visuals and the soundtrack) are fucking awesome during the whole game.

    Get it guys, i rather like to spend my money encouraging people to continue to make little wonders like that than on stuff with guns, terrorists and marines.

    I just finished it recently as well. It was really enjoyable, great atmosphere, puzzles, and music. I also really like how everything is done with visuals and sounds rather than words. I'd definitely recommend it.

    just finished the demo and loved it the atmosphere is so tight its unbelievable.

    but you really need a special mind set to play these kind of games and i wished it would highlight more what all the things are that you can click on an what is just eye candy ...

    finished it last weekend here is my review:

    + lovely graphics

    + strong on the emotional side

    + super tight atmosphere ( improuves with time too )

    + not too long just about the right time

    + has a built in hint system and walk through which both still require a bit of skill and cunning to use properly and are abuse proof

    - often you cant tell what you can interact with because you need to be close by for the cursor to change its icon

    - controls are weired you cant stop everywhere it claims you walk to ( which at some point actually turns out to be a good thing since the robot will only stop somewhere where he can interact with something)

    -riddles are hard as fuck

    id definitely recommend it go buy it now !!!!!!!
