Lost In Space - The First Adventure

When we last left our pioneer family, they were still in the Junkyard in Space, that was 1968. We're now so far into the future that the Jupiter 2 should have launched 29 years ago and at last we can tune in for the conclusion. The graphics in this game are perfect for the subject matter, this is probably how viewers in the 60's felt when they saw the show in colour for the first time. The gameplay is just hard enough that it feels challenging, but it's not impossible, and most importantly, every puzzle can be solved with actual logic, no "guess what the programmer is thinking" that's all too common in this genre. Will Robinson is the main character, but as the game goes on, you get the ability to switch to Dr Smith and the General Utility Non-Theorizing Environmental Robot (that's B-9 to most) which is faithful to the mid Season 1 - Season 2 episodes which made up the majority of the show. I believe the voicework uses a combination of AI / voice-clips and impersonators; Dr Robinson sounds exactly like Guy Williams, but there are small, odd audio artefacts in his lines, I can't tell if it's AI or if they just stitched some pre-existing lines together, Livia Soprano-style. The Robot sounds like a very good ♥♥♥♥ Tufeld impression, Will sounds like a real VA. Dr Smith sounds like his lines were assembled with all three techniques, but the overall effect is convincing. None of the other characters have lines (sorry, Don West fans). The sets are are fully re-created, including some peculiarities that only fans would notice like the Burroughs B205 terminals in the Jupiter-2, the fact that you can't walk 360 degrees around the spacecraft (because that would take you beyond the limits of the planet set) or a puzzle set in the massive storeroom that only appeared in one episode, recreated right down to the labels on the boxes. The music is directly from the show, as are the classic sound-effects, which makes it very immersive. The only criticisms that can be made are the length (it's intended to be the first episode in a series, so like the actual show it ends on "To be continued NEXT WEEK!") the save feature is also not very transparent. You can't bring up the pause menu in the middle of a puzzle and even when you do, it has no save button. so it's quite confusing, especially if you're trapped in a gauntlet of one puzzle after another; on that note, the ending is a little repetitive, it's a long traversal through a series of gates, each one of which is protected by the same types of puzzle, in the same order, and when you reach the end of the path, our heroes then have to traverse a parallel, identical path. Despite the criticisms, I'd recommend this to anybody who has any love for the show, even if you really prefer Trek and you're just a casual LiS fan (that's probably everybody at this point). Intriguing! Thrilling! Challenging! This is the adventure you'll share in "Lost in Space: The First Adventure"!

The game has a good story, and the puzzles were fun until you get to the three gate puzzles. Doing the step stones and wheels for a couple of times was OK, but then it just goes on and on and on... The game at this point just wastes my time (I don't consider this gameplay.) I would have rather had different puzzles instead of just expanding the same old thing. Once in a puzzle I did not find an exit option to go back to game or to the menu to quit or to adjust settings. There is a skip puzzle option, but that skips you past the puzzle. There's plenty room for improvement, and I hope the game offers a bigger variety of puzzles.

1. The controls are lacking. Controller? For a PC game? Maybe I'm just an old-timey loser, but I use a mouse and keyboard with my PC, a controller on my console. 2. Several places where the controls locked, especially during a puzzle, making it impossible to proceed. 3. Once started, puzzles don't seem to be able to be backed out of, only skipped - but thank GOD for that skipping feature. 4. The "puzzles" are nothing but trial and error code sequences with no hints or clues anywhere. 5. Several places where the camera angles were weird, making it difficult to see important, actionable items. I played the demo and really enjoyed it...but it was like that was the highlight reel of the entire game and all the parts that were left out could've been skipped.

I liked the use of voice lines from the show and I thought the animation was good. I liked the settings and exploring the interior of the Jupiter 2. Some of the puzzles felt more like trial and error and brute force than puzzling and I feel like without those it would be a much shorter experience. In the next chapter I would like to see more sequences like the opening of the game where it was combining items and finding uses. Overall, a very faithful Lost in Space experience and clearly a labor of love. I loved how the robot's arms moved when you ran him around. :)

I grew up with this Show, Loved it. I think that having the Original Theme Tune and True Characters voices Cements this as a must have game for anyone who loved Lost in Space. Game is a little short, but i hope the Devs continue to do the follow up episodes. What is here is a lot of fun and keeps very faithful to the spirit of the TV series. You can see Someone in the Dev dept is a Very real Fan of this old iconic favourite and has put a lot of effort into making this game look and feel like the Show. I think personally they pulled it off. Thank you for Making the Game.

Great to see Lost in space as a game, It brings back fond memories of watching the old black and white shows on TV, the characters are really good and true to the original look The game is let down by repetitive puzzles on the last part that are just the same again and again but harder and harder, it sort of wears you down . Also would have liked more interaction with the robot as he is the star of the show in my view. I have recommended the game to other players just for the fact the show is an old classic and was good to see it again but its not really a great gaming experience

I've been waiting so long for this game!! I met the dev team at a convention awhile back before it was released and played a few minutes of it then! I can easily say the full release has been SOOOO worth the wait!! The game looks incredible, the character voices are spot on, the scenery looks almost spot on from the show, the puzzles are really fun, and the story feels like a Lost in Space episode!! The character mannerisms and voicing are SO accurate to the original characters I am so impressed. My nostalgia is so happy right now. The devs did such an amazing job with this game and I really hope they continue to make more!!

I love the cozy old timey feel, and the puzzles are actually fun because they are short and simple, but still require you to think for a hot second, or minute, or longer than I'm going to admit... those crates got me Worth it, I recommend, gonna save some gameplay for later =)

So, short story here, but I actually played the demo at the LVL Up Expo 2024 and got to talk with the Dev about this game. It was a little peculiar memory as the developer (I believe it was Dustin) was standing next to a cutout of what looked like himself. I thought to myself, who is this crazy lad who put himself in his own game and brought a cutout of himself to the LVLUP Expo? I would come up to see the game myself for my own curiosity, then to my own surprise. It was actually a cutout of Dr.Smith from the Lost in Space series! It honestly shocked me that it wasn't a self-insert, and I had never heard of the series before, but it definitely got me interested in this game, and I knew I had to check it out after that. Fast forward to now, to 2026, and this game shows up in my store page on steam and memories came back to me of that experience. So I decided to buy the game, and it's honestly not a bad purchase. I only played the demo back then. But I was taken aback by how charming the characters were and how it just felt like a vintage television series turned into a game format. You can definitely see the inspiration behind the game, and it carries a lot of that charm in the interactions. The game itself is a Puzzle Adventure game, that is, I wouldn't say revolutionary, but nostalgic as it feels somewhat reminiscent of old school puzzle adventure games in the past. It's nice game if you are a fan of the puzzle adventure genre. Which I am, I had some fun with this game with some of its interesting.... Although let me be a bit frank, there is a gate puzzle section at the end of this game that will make you tear your hair out for how tedious and repetitive it. I will now forever hate the "gate wheel puzzle" and the "tile grid puzzles" that show up way too much for a final section. I would have loved to have seen more creative puzzles than to have to repeat those puzzles for the tenth time. other than that. I overall enjoyed the game and would recommend it to people. This is definitely a hidden gem of a game; it honestly has a lot of love to give to the original show. I would love to see more tie-in games treat their source material with the same level of care and respect that this game demonstrates.

Porque o jogo Lost In Space foi criado á partir de um seriado de TV que fazia muito sucesso por volta dos anos 1960, é um verdadeiro clássico de SFY. Assim esperamos que o jogo seja também.
