A decently enjoyable puzzle game that just didn’t manage to fully pull me in. The environments are gorgeous, but they’re also frequently a pain to navigate. (Why does fast travel only work from the shuttle?) The story is intellectually interesting and the voice actors do a solid job (I was impressed by the wide variety of accents on display), but I never felt particularly emotionally invested, and even though the characters do have distinct personalities they wound up feeling first and foremost like mouthpieces for their respective philosophical positions. And as for the puzzles themselves, I generally had a good time solving them and there were some that I found particularly clever, but for the most part they just didn’t hit the highs of my favorite puzzle games.
