Primordia Reviews

Great game!

this game rekindled my love for P&C adventure games, a genre i hadnt touched in years. i loved the story, characters, the extremely unique and original artstyle and same goes for the soundtrack. a point i want to emphasize is that the gameplay is especially well designed!! i got stuck more than a couple of times but then discovered i can ask crispin for help. its the first adventure game i have beaten [b]without looking up a guide[/b] :steamhappy: crazy how the simplest games can be the most immersive when everything is done right

I recommend this one. Immersive, storyrich, with a nicely developed world in a futuristic dystopian scenery. This is a very entertaining game for admirers of classic point and click style adventures.

The game is genuinely fantastic, from the start it nails the feeling of being in a larger world with a lot more to learn about, the two main characters are both incredibly well written, and their chemistry is strong which makes them a fantastic emotional core to the story, with really good acting to seal the deal, the whole game has this air of charisma and intrigue that kept me interested all the way, the sci-fi setting that reminded me of things like Dune is something I really enjoy, the team at Wormwood are so good at building settings for their stories that specifically appeal to me. The puzzles as a whole always make enough sense, that is when you develop a habit of rubbing every item in your inventory with every other item in case things can be merged together, I had to look up a guide for some things but it's not unlikely the average point and click fan doesn't figure it out themselves without help, especially with the hints from Crispin. The story is great and the world is full of minor details that flesh it out, my only criticism is I don't like how the endings play out, I don't like when games give you a bunch of levers to pull and each one gives you a little cutscene and sends you on your way, I did every ending and none of them in my opinion did justice to the fantastic narrative up to that point, would've loved if the main villain was more involved in the story earlier apart from one scene where they appear to basically say "hey just FYI I'm the main villain see you when you reach the end" but my feelings toward it overall were very positive, and two of the endings atleast felt like an appropriate conclusion.

Great game, unfortunately I cannot recommend buying it.

A fun and sometimes frustrating game. Puzzle-oriented, similar to other titles in its genre. Voice acting is fairly decent and overall a neat sci-fi post-apocalypse story line. Super interest and worth it, especially if it's on sale.

A good classic Point & Click game, I enjoy the story, the game and how responsive the dev is even the game is like 12-13 years old now? Give it a try! Some puzzles might seems a bit annoyed but in the end it was there for a reason.

I don't play a lot of point anc click games, it wasn't part of my taste. Then, why Primordia? Well... I love robots. I didn't enter the game totally blind, i saw about it on a video talking about 3 phylosophical pieces of media that contained decaying worlds and were based on technology and this game was one of these reccomendations. I immediately loved everything about it. First, the art is WONDERFUL. I'd love to do art as incredible as the one this game has. Second, I didn't know what to do and I'm not afraid to say i used a walkthrough sometimes but that didn't make the experiencie less enjoyable for me, it just helped a little. Still, for the 85% i did by my myself i loved the mechanics and how you can do the puzzles and interactions by yourself and all the characters have something to say. With that said i go to the third point: the writing. As a rookie writer this game feels AWESOME in every part of the story. It's really such an inspiration, I love it. I can't criticize the story as a professional person, but as a fan i can say it's really the best. I haven't finished getting all the achievements at the point of writing this, but still... 10/10 I would love to play it again without knowing what it is about. Also the music is a banger.

Pretty good game! I love the dystopian setting and the underlying philosophical themes. The puzzles are logical but the solutions can be hard to get if you don't pay attention. If you're stuck, ask Crispin for hints. And also remember to right click. And also explore the edges of the screen because there may be more space to go. The low res pixelated art style was annoying in the beginning but it stopped being an issue once I got used to it.

Top-notch pixel art, narrative, and voice acting to boot. This point-and-click adventure game is a hidden gem for any nostalgic adventurer. If you liked this, also check out The Excavation of Hobbs Barrow.
