Never thought a point and click adventure game would have me butt clenching from stress but here we are. It's VERY good from the writing to the gameplay itself. The puzzles are fairly intuitive and while the looming countdown can be stressful, it's generous if you know what you're doing. If you ever happen to mess up however, there is a save and load system. The game also has good replay value, but i'm not going to say much more than that to not ruin the fun, and you shouldn't ruin yours too. Spare yourself the spoilers and play the game blind.

Play the whole scriptwelder collection in order. Starting with the Deep Sleep trilogy, then the Don't Escape trilogy, then this. Trust me it's worth it.

I just wanted to check it out quickly last night after watching CallMeKevins lets play of the game. I was hooked until 3 AM. I finished the true ending today and had goosebumps. A great game of a genre I usually don't even play.

I bought this years ago but finally got around to playing it; easily one of, if not the best, point and click franchises. scriptwelder's flash-games already felt like premium experiences, this goes even further above and beyond. 11/10, very well worth every penny.

I played both the trilogies; Don't Escape and Deep Sleep, and also Primal Sands. I played these multiple times so I am quite familiarized with the story, and let me tell you its very well put together. This game however ties it all in such a sublime way. The Night Folks are mentioned in some notes and can appear during the gameplay. Also the blue crystals are mentioned on other notes that explain how they interact with the story background. And considering both these objects were introduced years ago is one hell of foreshadowing from the developer. Not to mention the login easter egg you can use on the official sidereal plexus website . Scriptwelder is just brilliant, a genius, I wasn’t expecting such a masterpiece to emerge from those simple flash games, yet here we are.
