Void Breach

Short 'find the item you need' adventure game. I really liked the soundtrack.

Great little cosmic adventure game! A bit rough around the edges (as would be expected for a very early game from this dev), but it plays well, has some wonderful low-res 16 color artwork, and the music is fantastic throughout. The tone and mood are great, exploring the gameworld really gives you an offbeat & otherworldly feel that's hard to capture. Looks like a parser game but it's fully point & click. Definitely worth a play if you want an adventure you can finish in two to three well-spent hours.

Fun adventure game in a style reminiscent of the classic Sierra AGI games. Even moderately experienced adventurers should be able to make it through the quirky alien world, as most of the puzzles make sense in their context, with just the merest hint of moon logic. Although there is some inconsistency in the level of quality throughout the game, it's enjoyable and fans of adventure games should try it out. And also check out the developer's other games right here on Steam (and the free Tachyon Dreams series to be found elsewhere) to see how they've improved their skills since this one!

Great little game - not too hard but just a fun retro point-'n-click. Not a lot of moon magic, so it is great for people who love adventure games but get frustrated with their crazy "just-need-to-try-everything" nonsense.

The main point of attraction of this "lo-res" game is the art style which harkens back to a mid-80s Sierra game. Unlike those games, this is an actual point n' click game which makes use of a mouse and eschews the use of the text parser. While most of the graphics are purposefully pixely, the cursor icon is more hi-res, which breaks from the feel of the rest of the game. A large number of the puzzles in this game involve getting past some obstacle, whether it is a tree stump, a wolf-like creature, a giant baby, etc. and this style of puzzle became repetitious and I would have liked a wider range of puzzles. Fortunately, the game is not overly difficult -- at least nothing quite as obtuse or fiendish as the gnome's name riddle from King's Quest 1 -- but some of the puzzles did involve random experimentation until something finally worked. The entire game took around 3-4 hours to complete. There were even a couple areas in the game where I was trying to figure if I never managed to get past or if they were red herrings (getting past a locked door in a castle). If you are looking for some nostalgic 80s gaming fun, give Void Breach a spin. It looks like the developer is working on another pixel game which I am eager to see what comes of the next game.

As most of my reviews will state, I've played a lot of point and click adventures for a long time now. I really enjoyed this one. It is fairly short & simple but it felt very nostalgic. The artwork seems a little crude at a glance, but it reminded me of the games like this I started playing as a kid in the early 90's - especially Maniac Mansion or Zak McKracken which is my sweet spot. I definitely got stuck a few times because much like the early games of the genre, you have to do a lot of pixel hunting and clicking around with the "eye" cursor to find things, but that's what made those old games fun! Lots of points for nostalgia, so if you're an aging gamer like me that grew up loving simple graphics, pixel hunting, and weird sci-fi/fantasy story telling - then this is for you! If you're a little more modern, want sleek top of the line graphics, hints, and hotspots then you might find this game a little frustrating.

I have to admit this isn't particularly my style of point and click, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I'm not a huge fan of the old Sierra games, who this game is squarely aimed at, but there's plenty to enjoy in the way of storyline, humour and exploration, with obviously a fair bit of puzzle-solving along the way. It has an enjoyably wacky plot and plenty of interesting characters. The graphics are functional but consistent and often contains a surprising amount of detail, and the music fits the game really well. Overall recommended to point and click fans but especially if you have fond memories of 80s Sierra-on-Line titles.

a pleasant retro-inspired adventure

Void Breach is a surprisingly fun little retro adventure game. The graphics are just as garish and janky at they look in the trailer, but there's something endearing about this kind of boldly ugly style. I guess I am exactly the target demographic because I'm old enough to have played the original games that were built in this style, so the aesthetic really worked for me. It's like a mishmosh of childhood memories you don't quite recall. It helps that the music is very, very good. Seriously, the game is worth buying just for the music alone. The puzzles are all of the "your path is blocked, find the thing that will unblock it" type, but because there aren't many locations and there aren't many items, you can't really get stuck. I only had to look up a walkthrough once, and it's because it wasn't intuitive to me that you can use items on yourself as well as other things. So now you know. If you like oldskool adventure games, or that Ceephax style of melancholic chippy synth music, you'll like this game. Short, sweet, solid.

[h1] Yes Honey -- Only a Spicy Chili Pepper and a Toilet Plunger Can Save Our Reality! [/h1] Void Breach is an early EGA style point and click adventure with a cool premise. A scientist is looking for his lost daughter gets trapped in a weird and zany pocket reality. Mermaids, giant vegetables, ghost children, Aztec temples and a Cthulhu tree can be found here on your about 2-3 hour adventure. This is simpler game in execution but has inventory items that are used in several left-field, clever ways. In addition, Void Breach has a nice soundtrack to listen to on this adventure.
