Windows Central
Innovative sci-fi narrative with complex characters and solid writing
Well optimized with stable frame rates on ultra settings, even on a mid-range AMD system.
Challenging gameplay with multiple scenarios that encourage replay.

Challenging gameplay with multiple scenarios that encourage replay.
Difficulty setting doesn't cover economy, so it could still be too difficult for new strategy players.

An emotional and humanist sci-fi story of self-discovery that's both existential and introspective

Base building and management systems are fun and satisfying ? efficiency, optimization, modular base building, it's all here

Tough decision making, crisis aversion, and plenty of other high-stake challenges for survivalist sickos

Original concept. Exciting and touching character stories. Complex base building. Atmospheric planet.
Inadequate tutorial and poor onboarding. Too many systems at once. Time management becomes easily overwhelming.

Well-considered core systems are engaging and challenging.
The voice acting by Alex Jordan across all the versions of Jan really helps make them feel unique.
No resource punishment for altering your base setup allows for experimentation.
Very clever writing that invests in longterm payoffs for the player.

Controls can be just a little awkward sometimes.
The save system, while understandable, can be a little frustrating.
Slightly obtuse in places, but nothing that cannot be overcome with curiosity.
Character faces can lose detail during dialogue sections.

Managing Alters and missions could initially be confusing.
User interface to be improved in certain menus and in the tutorial.
Facial animations are very limited and movements are imprecise.

Narrative remains enthralling with compelling mysteries

A compelling PS5 version

11 bit Studio's winning survival formula transplants well into a grander sci-fi setting
The rhythm of resource and relationship management is tense but enthralling
The gameplay stress is balanced with a heavy does of humour including some of the finest short films I've seen in a game
Choices matter

Base maintenance mechanic isn't adequately explained until it becomes a very large problem
Dialogue is riddled with spelling mistakes and tonal whiplash in light of what's actually happening
Third act fizzles out a bit in terms of the established desperate survival tone
Traversing the base on foot is not a good time
