Adrift (or ADR1FT) is an okay experience, having not known the background of the game going into it I found myself enjoying it for what it was - a game where the protagonist finds themselves amidst a catastrophe in space and must try to escape back to earth by repairing what she can of the main station to fuel an escape pod.

However, with it being such a short game I found it being rather repetitive and honestly, a little too slow. More often than not you’re slowly drifting to the next area to try not to exhaust your oxygen supplies and there’s little more to it than go to the next place, get this somewhat handy but not-really-an-improvement upgrade for your suit and repair key needed x4.

I also really didn’t like the text-to-speech dialogue that plagued the game - it heavily took me out of the experience along with the irritating background music (I ended up putting my tv’s sound near right the way down).

It’s a shame because the concept and idea of the game was actually interesting.
