+ Creative planetary exploration with a few "wow" moments
± Not as good as I expected based on user reviews. It's fairly unique, something like "Myst in space" at its core, plus some Antichamber-like perspective puzzles and a bit of Subnautica's advanced alien technology
- Some of the exploration was just barely interesting enough to keep me playing, and it was frustrating at times due to the ever-present timer
- I didn't feel much connection to the characters or story
- This was the only game to ever make me feel motion sickness, but it went away after increasing the FOV from the low default setting
