Between Horizons – A Sci-Fi Detective Adventure

老套的虚空裔故事，人物刻画得不错。破案逻辑和玩法都略折磨，整体不如前作Lacuna，打折便宜还是推荐吧。 以及我真的不喜欢不让我SL的游戏，故事也不长，主角的分支塑造也就是换几句台词，讨论的更是科幻主题内的老话题了，有什么好拿没有回头路的玩法来拷打玩家道德的？

문 하나 여는 모션에서 30초, 로딩에서 20초 걸려서 도저히 게임 진행이 안 됨. 최소한 이 게임을 엔딩까지 볼려면 문을 400번을 열어야 되는데 그럴려면 333분 이나 걸림. 무슨 전작 게임인 라쿠나에서 담배 한 개피 피는 시간보다 문 하나 열고 이동하는 시간이 더 걸리냐? 담배는 분위기오 볼거리라도 있지. 이 쓰레기 게임은 뭔 문 앞에서 하루종일 숨 쉬는 것만 봐야 된다.

Started well, and not a terrible game, but ultimately unsatisfying and felt like a missed opportunity. The story felt underwhelming and while its themes are interesting, those weren't really explored, but instead were just used as a backdrop for the mysteries/cases to be solved. In the end they made it feel like most of the characters were very self-serving, wanting to get their own way, but in the bigger picture such control over one's life is just an illusion, so it didn't really hit home. The map is annoying, with lots of backtracking and returning to areas, with a terrible fast travel system that is barely worth using. For me this lack of respect for a players time was probably the biggest negative and made it a chore to play. The mysteries/cases were either too obvious, or somewhat obtuse, where the provided evidence didn't always make sense motive wise. Its not about finding evidence to lead to the culprit, but accusations based on the balance of probability. That can work in some games, but here it just felt incomplete and more like a checklist.

A fun little game for what it is. Not actually a point and click game despite having the tag. Instead it is a logic and deduction game where you solve cases by collecting clues and then through the process of elimination figure out the answer. There is no hunting for items and then figuring out how they work in puzzles. The game is so simple it can be easily played with a controller. [h1]Positives[/h1] + The 2.5D graphics are nice and bring depth to the game. + Most of the puzzles aren't too hard and all can be figured out with deduction and logic. Except the server puzzle, no idea how you're supposed to do that one. + You can make different choices which affect the ending. + I found the story interesting including the moral dilemmas. [h1]Neutral[/h1] +- The new 2D graphics are terrible, but thankfully optional. And when I say 2D I mean 2D, as in the perspective is flat. It's ugly and removes all depth. +- Not a fan of being unable to have multiple saves, but the game isn't hard and there are no deadends. +- While you do have choices, they don't make much of a difference except for the ending. The story progresses unimpeded even if you solve the cases wrong. But you do miss out on a certain confrontation if you get a specific puzzle wrong. [h1]Negatives[/h1] - The camera instantly jerks in whatever direction you start moving. Very disconcerting, but you do get used to it. - At $16 it's way too expensive for what you get, which is about 6 hours for a first playthrough if you're very thorough and read everything. Wait for a good sale like I did.

This game had a lot of elements I enjoy. It's a story driven detective game, that feels rewarding to solve cases. For less than $10 I'd say this game is worth checking out. It's not without it's flaws though!! As a story driven detective game... You really don't care about the story. I mean you kinda do, but you don't get to know the other characters enough for any revelations to pack a punch. I wish the game let you play a "normal" day or week leading up to the events, just so you got a feel for the vibe of the ship. Speaking of ship. Oh wow is navigating it awful. It is not intuitive. It is not intuitive on where to go or who to talk to a lot of the times. I almost quit because the navigation was AWFUL. But I did push through and I eventually got used to it. Just know it's a bit of a learning curve.

I've expected some classic point&click old-school adventure. Instead I've played absolutely brilliant detective adventure with unique clue mechanics and excellent stories. Pros: - entertaining and complex stories - detective puzzles where you need to think (even use pen&paper) - brilliant idea to store information instead of items into "inventory" - beautiful graphics and music - smooth steam deck controls integration Cons (these are just cosmetic nit picks): - orange text on highlighted blue background is hard to read - voiced text have no background and are also hard to read sometimes - a lot of loading screens, like when entering almost every room, luckily short ones Could be a bit more polished but I love it: 9/10 PS: be prepared for tons of text to read, It's almost like a book with graphics ;-)

Interesting gameplay, fine art style, nice music and quite original story. Good game overall, although it could be better if made more "interactive". A lot of times people doesn't respond to the clues/evidence(they have the same response to most things). Also the game could be a bit longer and there should be more different endings.

Go play Lacuna instead. That one had a superb music and visual style. Story is good in both games. Here mix of 3d and 2d looks lazy after Lacuna. And what is up with load times between screens that has less data than games on NES, and it has to load for seconds on a system that has 16Gb? I'm leaving Yes in "Do you recommend this game" only for people to find Lacuna after this one. I hope next game won't have 200 clues in a list to scroll every time you need to talk second time to someone.

Great little game. A definite recommendation for point & click/detective game enthusiasts. I wonder why it isn't more popular among the niche point & click fan community. I'm a sucker for the generational colony ship premise and I found this interpretation well implemented. The puzzles are mostly satisfying and non-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, so you should be able to get through the game without frustration or the need to look up guides. Especially the door-access-time-puzzle (you'll know it when you reach it) was fun and I will definitely steal this for one of my pen and paper games. I can only advice against taking long breaks between game sessions. There is a evidence info system that works well enough, but the short game length rewards finishing the story within only a few sessions. The game's brevity is not a downside btw. It is (compared to similar titles) relatively unbloated and free of unnecessary filler content.

制作还不错，喜欢破案过程，不过女主好像没什么成长
