The Message from Deep Space

An absorbing game, may at times feel a bit like reviewing your school education but juggling word definitions and trying to find words for things that clearly don't match 1:1 to English words is engaging. Sometimes a bit picky about answers but that's what you'd expect from an alien probe that's basically a recording of inputs and outputs.

just hit 150 and I can say its definitely pretty fun and hits the Chants of Sennaar/Outer Wilds type of itch. My only issue so far is that for a decent amount of the game, the correct keywords are apparent from the first time they appear and then you have to slog through boring logic expressions where the only hard part is keeping track of which variable is which. Gonna keep playing tho cuz I've seen other reviews saying it gets more interesting and I imagine other disciplines that aren't math/cs are probably gonna be more engaging for me? idk

Genuinely touching and fantastic language-and-science-based puzzle game. Couple of minor bugs (the 237 one was the most notable but has been fixed with 1.2.0) but the dev is still polishing and fixing things quickly. The UI takes a bit of getting used to but is very suitable for the atmosphere. The [spoiler] alien units [/spoiler] section of the reference could maybe do with more of the [spoiler] unit conversions [/spoiler] being included but it doesn't come up much. Some of the answers can be a little difficult and use some more possible response variations but it wasn't too disruptive either. Would honestly recommend to almost anyone who likes puzzles. (-138) (-86) (-45) (-30) (-136) (-153) (-85) (-2) (-2) (-245) (-30) (-243)

This is genuinely one of the most rewarding experiences to have been released in the last decade.
