[h1] Game Description: [/h1] If you are looking for a tight-nit, lore written world and a common game mechanic reused through out the game, this is not the game for you. There is no lore. There are only specific puzzles and are (99%) not reused. Playing this game is like buying N different puzzle concepts pieced together by a "overworld." Each small level with different Unreal Assets pieced together. If you come knowing what you are getting into then I think the experience will be a lot smoother. The game can feel at times like a student side-project but with certain strokes clever puzzles under a veil of Unreal Assets. I'd recommend playing the demo. If you find solving the demo was fun, then imagine that but for N levels, each placing you in the middle of a self-contained area. [h1] My Thoughts [/h1] [b] I rate this a 6/10. Here's why: [/b] Some of the puzzles were fun and I see some potential in flushing out some of the puzzles further. However, my biggest complaint is the use of Unreal Assets. The game can feel at times pieced together without a cohesive theme. The game's environment is often very poignant: a puzzle either uses an obviously placed object for a required solution in the environment OR its a shrub-like asset from the Unreal Store. Unlike Talos Principle or Myst where the environment offers story telling and affect the puzzles, what you get is a feeling of the game being a series of student projects submitted in a game jam (or an "okay" mod.) Yes, each level has its own theme. However, even within those levels, sections can often "feel" off and the themes do not enhance the game play experience. It makes me wonder why the game was presented in Unreal Engine when the same puzzles can be achieved in other mediums like point and click engines, phone apps, custom pixel 2d engines, etc. Despite this rating, I would still recommend the game for two reasons: (1) there are few games like this where the puzzles have a certain spark to them. (2) there is a lot of potential if the game could have a higher budget and production time to aim for that narrative / environmental storytelling experience, it would make the game shine. If not better narrative storytelling then at least a more focused medium where the puzzles are the emphasis. I would recommend this game on a sale at around $5. I got it for $10 and felt a bit too much. There was 5 hours spent, however, some of that time is for large areas of traversal and time consuming puzzles / trial and error puzzles which were the slower parts of the game.

This game is for 'puzzle-lovers'. It owes quite a lot to Myst and there's nuthin' wrong with that. Beautifully surreal and often dream like, it looks marvelous. There are people that will find this game at times difficult and it will be IF....you don't think "outside of the box". It's the only way you'll discover how logically simple they are. Now.....go tease yer brain an' have some fun.😎 🌟🌟🌟🌟½

Hugely imaginative and original 'escape the room' puzzler. The puzzles are grounded in logic and they never seem unfair and each level offers a fresh new idea. My only gripe is that activating/testing mechanisms within puzzles can often take a huge amount of time. I imagine the developer did this to stop people brute forcing solutions by accident, but because of the experimental route you often have to go down to solve a puzzle, you spend the majority of the level just sat there waiting for an environmental mechanism to end. Even having the mechanical transition period halved would still leave the puzzles cumbersome to solve. Despite that, Zof breathes new life into a dead genre and I'm super jealous and impressed its game from an indie developer.

Utterly Brilliant. A great Myst like puzzle game without the dialog laden story. Loved every minute of it. Can't wait for the second one.

En çok zorlandığım bulmaca oyunlarında 2. sırayı alan bir oyun oldu ZOF. (1. sıramda "Obduction" var tabiki) Hiç bir ipucu yok, konu yok, ham FPS bulmaca oyunu. Her tür kafa karıştıcı bulmaca türünü barındırmasıda cabası =) Oyun mağazasındaki açıklamaya aldanmayın "Çözüm her zaman basittir, sadece daha dikkatli bakın" =) Bu oyunda en az 10 saat geçirmeniz garanti. Obduction oyununada göz atmayı unutmayın! Puanım : -9/10-

I'm well into the game but a way off from finishing but wanted to give a review anyway - WOW, this is outstanding. This is exactly (so far) the type of game I search and search for but seldom find these days. I'll update my review when done, which I hope is not soon.

This is the example of "no story is always better than a poor story". You find yourself stranded on an island. No tutorial. No explanations. Go figure it out yourself. I like that. Puzzles are of a good enough variety, mostly requiring observation, sometimes logic. a couple are pretty annoying though, mostly due to the tricky controls. Graphics are cute. It´s no Myst nor Rhem, but overall a pleasant experience.
