This one didn't click with me. I can appreciate the work that went into making it, and I loved Machinarium, but this felt obtuse and just a little boring.

At the 3 hour mark I'm enjoying this so far. Definitely worth a sale purchase!

A relaxing and intriguing puzzle game. It has just the right balance of cryptic and direct information that you can figure things out for yourself without needing hints.

I wish this game worked properly, I really do. When it runs properly it's really good fun...

When I started it was running just fine, but now it randomly drops from a locked 60fps down to 7-8fps and it becomes unplayable. On some parts of the world it'll suddenly jump back to 60fps again and at other times it'll drop even lower down to 3-4fps. Resolution, quality level or DLSS type makes zero difference to the stability of the frame rate. It's so disappointing as I really want to play it!

I'm running this on a 5800X3D and a 3080. It shouldn't be this bad.

Atmospheric, and quite wonderful! Thoroughly recommended.

I just don't know if I like this or not. It's very, very samey. Did you get back to the port any time after midday? You might as well just rest then because otherwise you won't have time to do anything before the night.

I got bored.

Great story, great voice acting and just unsettling enough for me. The puzzles were intuitive and I didn't ever feel the need to pixel hunt. This works perfectly on the Steam Deck; just watch the default binding of Quick Load to one of the back buttons!

I wholeheartedly recommend this game to anyone up for an old-school point and click adventure without the old-school obtuse puzzles!

The puzzle mechanics are just slightly too cryptic with little to no introduction. Shame as it had potential

A wonderful diversion!

I died again... OK it was my fault - I'll take it more carefully this time... I died again... OK it was my fault... ad inifinitum.

I'm really enjoying Remnant 2. It's not a Souls-like, it's a Souls-adjacent game with animation-priority combat and a lot less frustration than a From Software game. There's always something else to explore, just over there. Thoroughly recommended if you enjoy action games that require a little patience to fully appreciate.
