User reviews & Ratings
Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
I love point-and-click adventures and Iโve never missed a Wadjet Eye release. Some of them are excellent, others simply good. Old Skies, despite its visible rough edges, falls closer to the former. You play as an employee of a time-travel agency, but instead of focusing on butterfly effects or flashy paradoxes, the game is more interested in the worldโs constant state of flux and the existential cost this work takes on its protagonist. It deals with heavy themes, tells a compelling story, and closes on a quietly bittersweet ending.

Here's my obligatory Steam Awards micro-review: while everybody is celebrating Clair Obscur as GOTY (granted, it's probably the best AAA game I've ever played), Dave Gilbert has quietly released yet another masterpiece with an intricate and insanely beautiful story. Sure, it's a small indie game almost nobody (except for point-and-click fans) has heard of, but it's my personal GOTY, and narrative-wise it's absolutely on par with Clair Obscur.

And Poof. We now know each other Once again, Wadjet Eye nailed it. Old Skies is the newest game from our favourite developer, with a very interesting story about Fia Quinn, a time traveller who works at ChronoZen agency, where people who have money can alter the past to change the future. Your job is simple, yet the changes are not and will affect everything around you. Each chapter introduces a new character, but everything starts to make sense as you play. I enjoyed the story thoroughly. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3567998257 The artwork and animation were good. The cutscenes looked different, but the whole game grew on me. The soundtracks, however, were the best; they fit the atmosphere of the game nicely. The gameplay is just like any classic P&C game, but with the ability to travel back and forth in time and collect items and facts you need to proceed. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3567998428 The variety of puzzles was good; some were quite difficult, and you had to look around for numbers or rewind the time to figure them out. If you ever get stuck in the game, you can press 'H' to highlight items you can interact with, or call Nozz, your friend, for guidance through the next segment. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3568972757 Pros: +Interesting story with multiple chapters and twists. +Likable characters. +Beautiful soundtracks. +Well-done voice-over. +Good animation. +Manual + Automatic save files. +Hinting system (Calling your friend) +Steam achievements. Cons: -Artwork in cutscenes is low in quality. I liked all the characters, especially Imani; none of them were annoying, and even Elizabeth was quite interesting. I enjoyed the voice acting a lot; they all did a good job. I already miss playing the game. I highly recommend it to people who enjoy P&C games or are familiar with Wadjet Eye games.

Full disclosure, I'm an old graybeard of the AGS forums and knew Dave from way back when, and have played pretty much everything in the Wadjet Eye catalogue. I'm exactly the demographic for this game, and am probably biased toward liking it, but I bought the game with my own money on launch day and binge-played it from start to end on pretty much every hour I wasn't working. Wrapped in just shy of 15 hours. Probably my favorite Wadjet Eye game to date. The story is engaging throughout, and is a fun take on time travel. Some parts get frustrating due to needing to repeat things over and over in time loops, in many cases trial and error instead of anything intuitive, but those cases are the minority - by and large, the puzzles are challenging enough to need to use your head, and remember things you've read (And you'll be reading a lot), making you feel clever for solving them - but never resorts to "moon logic." Also, if you're a Steam Deck player, it works pretty much perfectly - I played the majority of the game on a docked Steam Deck with an Xbox controller. Extra-massive kudos to Dave and the rest of the team for pretty much perfecting controller interface on a point 'n click.
