Thank you for this incredible experience.
I’m usually a bit skeptical about full 3D audio games, because I often find it difficult to orient myself in them.
However, many design choices here make the gameplay very accessible: simply opening a door places you directly in the adjacent room, the walls are easy to perceive, open spaces have clear reverb cues, and you can’t accidentally move backwards.
The atmosphere also deserves a mention. Honestly, it gave me chills, a bit like the Alien film series by Ridley Scott. I absolutely love this kind of mood: the events that trigger, what you hear on thewalkie-talkie, the very high-quality voice acting… Sigourney Weaver, aka Ellen Ripley, would better watch out.
Finally, the puzzle system is extremely clever. It’s simple to understand, yet I still spent about twenty minutes going back and forth on the final puzzle before having the “aha” moment. But that’s also part of what makes it enjoyable.
Thank you!
