Turing Test is about Eva Turing waking from her cryogenic sleep. Her mission is to start when the base on Europa, a moon on Jupiter is completed by her team. T.O.M the project AI and guide wakes her. The base is ready but the team is missing. She shuttle lands on an icy Europa base. What starts as a simple search and rescue mission turns into a horrifying mystery of humans and machines, Control and moral ethics. Of humans controlling machines/AI or vice versa. As reasons of the vanishing of her team starts getting clear to her shock, the question of who is controlling whom and what game is being set up by her employees ISA gets darker. The story is decent graphics good. BUT the game is very boring. You have a gun but it is an Electro Magnetic Tool EMT gun to pull out or fire energy balls to open or close doors. The missing crew members have changed the base design leaving a series of puzzles that need both human and AI to solve. These are all engineering puzzles where you must use EMT guns, move things around, figure out sequences to open - close doors, use of cranes, magnetic pullers, lifts etc to move past the areas in the base towards the final area where the answers are. Imagine an Alien Isolation game but with no aliens to kill? Chapters 1-4 are boring. From 4 end things get interesting when Eva learns she has AI chips implanted in her allowing control of her actions and she can also enter use mechanical things like robots, drones, security cameras, cranes using that AI. So things get interesting as puzzles get complex and you use vast teleportation in objects to help activate switches. Working parallel merging with robots to unlock puzzles at other ends etc. You use massive destructive guns only thrice. Twice to break cranes, containers to clear your way. Last 3rd use is at game end in the epilogue where you make a moral choice for 1/3 possible endings. All 7 levels have a side quest a side area in each map at halfway point a small phase door in connecting corridor where you solve mechanisms to find the truth of the mystery of what happened to your team. Notes, objects, audio logs etc. The whole base is now a designed puzzle. Graphics is good. There is a Star Trek, Star Wars ship interior feel but its repetitive same old type rooms cum puzzles one area after another area. They should have throw in some gunfights with aliens. Its a Star Trek like walking puzzle game in end. The length of game does not fully do justice to story as there is nothing different to do thats what makes it boring and unsatisfactory. Still its worth 1 play if one has nothing better to do. The consistent blue, green, red lighting in the whole game rooms induces some motion sickness. It may take you 2 hours to 5-6 hours depending on how much you can move past rooms fast. Best buy cheap at sale.

Clunky controls and light story. And that's about it for the cons. Phenomenal atmosphere, wonderful puzzles and overall fascinating plot. A breeze to play if in the right mood for solving tests

A very interesting PORTAL-like puzzle game with Sci-Fi and Philosophical tones. Half puzzler, half First Person Explorer. If you like/liked PORTAL and The Talos Principle (and their sequels), I'd DEFINITELY recommend this!

Oh jeez, I like this style of game but my head is gonna explode soon.. the way it moves and goes up the ladder makes me dizzy.

March 2025

I've just recently started playing The Talos Principle, and it reminded me so much of this game, in a very good way. So I guess it's time to review it. The puzzles in this game grow to be real head-scratchers, and there are more than enough of them to sink your teeth into. The puzzles start very simple, and the concept/goal of them never really changes, but new iterations and mechanics are trickled in right up until the end of the game, and really push the limit of the original core concept. But what really stuck with me about this game was the narrative. Look, even by saying "There's a big twist", that's basically going to spoil everything anyway. The game is called "The Turing Test". If you know anything about that term, the "twist" will come as no surprise to you. But it absolutely got me. Rarely has my jaw involuntarily fallen open during a game, but this was one of those times. There are multiple endings, but I found each of them quite impactful, and kept me thinking long after I finished playing.
