Somehow I bought this game years ago I only played it for 14 minutes. But last weekend I started it randomly, and couldn't stop playing. The science fiction world and the concepts introduced are very solid - way better designed than most sci-fi content we get these days. The art, the environmental design, the sounds and especially the voice acting are incredibly well executed! I felt really engaged with the game, and the entire setting was believable, the characters and dialogues were rich and intelligent. It's rare these days to hear actually funny and entertaining dialogue and voice acting, so I appreciated a lot! On the negative side, I think the ending felt really rushed, and the neat, logical and intelligent nature of the game fell apart at the last "boss fight", since those dialogues arguably made little rational sense. On a high level, they were revolving around meaningful and deep subjects, but the execution was pretty weak, and the puzzles also felt sloppy. Also, given how great the environmental design and atmosphere of the game was, it kind of hurts to realize how short it was, and how few environments I was able to visit. When I was playing I hoped that perhaps I'll manage to increase my QDos level and visit the lower part of the city as well, or that with time I'll gain access to a lot more areas in general. Overall it makes you feel that the game introduced a lot of great sci-fi concepts and foundations, but then it didn't realize these with actual game mechanics. Of course, it is understandable that a small studio didn't have the budget for a much grander game, and this game already offers very high production values. I would be definitely interested in sequels or even good quality DLCs; it's sad that the audience is not broader, since it would make it more viable to realize further productions. Overall I would definitely recommend it! Especially for people who like to play memorable games and like to complete them (are the so many incompletable/perpetual games these days that try to rob you of all of your free time).

Honestly, it's close to on par with the original game. The original I feel had a better story and atmosphere, but the puzzle logic in this game feels a whole let better. Puzzles were not that hard to solve once you find all the random hacking points that lead to the solution. No moon logic puzzles, everything makes great sense once you work it out. It's not very long as most adventure games are not, but it really felt like it could have been longer, like there could have been a whole extra act or two in the game to really flesh it out. That's easily the biggest issue I have with it, and why I suggest getting it on sale.

If you're a fan of adventure games this is great. Loved the art style, humor, writing, and voice acting. The hint system helps keep things moving when you get stuck for too long and might otherwise feel frustrated. And it plays very well on the steam deck right out of the box. Looking forward to replaying it with the commentary turned on. It's worth the full price, but at the current 80% off it's a steal.

I Started this game as a random game to play from my un-played library. And yet another game I happily finished in one go! Oldskool point and click adventure with a nice story line, good voice acting and music , funny moments and great graphics. IMO this game deserves more up-votes, so let me start with mine. Having said that... I see in today's prices it is on the market for 30 Eur... THAT is too much. I would not pay more then 15, and you should be able to get it on sale or third party sellers for < 10 Eur.
