Primordia Reviews

Very nice story and art style. If you like these old school point and clicks it may be worth a look. Of course there is some exhausting puzzling involved but the hints are mostly good.

Very cool setting, interesting story. I'm not sure why the robots needed to have genders though. Weird choice.

This game reminds me a lot of Nier Automata, but unlike Nier it successfully delves much deeper into its character and philosophy. The puzzles are also fun and logical, with built mechanics to push you towards the correct solution if you are stuck and they're very satisfying when you realize what you have to do. I've always been more of a visual novel enjoyer and I disklike how a lot of point and click adventures rely on moon logic, making them impossible to play through without a guide, but Primordia I was able to almost finish by myself. The pixel art is great, but it's a little hard to actually play with. There's no button to highlight what you can actually interact with, leading to a few moments where I got stuck because I didn't realize there were a few brown pixels on the ground I could interact with to get items that I only found about through guides. Overall Primordia was a fun time that left me wanting to see more of the world and characters.

Absolutely amazing point and click adventure, great atmosphere and fantastic pixel art. Try strangeland as well its also very good. I hope they make more soon.

If anyone has been sleeping on this like me (for 10+ years oh damn) - take the plunge. It's really good. brief. engaging concept. better written than most games.

[h1]Why are you reading this? Go play the b'soding game![/h1] I originally played the game in 2019, and decided to replay again. I loved this game then, and I appreciate it more now. Primordia takes place in a post-apocalyptic world and as dark as Primordia is- it's a beautifully crafted game. The art is fantastic, the writing is fantastic, the voice actors were fantastic, and the music was was fantastic. [h3]P&C adventure games[/h3] aren't just about the puzzles, story, or characters, it's about how well all 3 are molded together into the adventure. Primordia does this very well, a lot of the puzzles are simple while others require you to think or just write stuff down. I did have to look up a couple, but I don't mind doing this. The story is so well written, that I lost myself (and track of time) for the hours I've played. It's the type of story where I wish there was so much more, a continuation. Not only did the devs bring the characters to life, the voice actors they chose brought even more 'life' to the characters. Honestly I really love Horatio and Crispin together, they make a great team. I remember when I first played this game I wasn't expecting it to be what it was for me...an emotional roller coaster- but the characters were written so well it was hard to not get attached to Horatio and Crispin. A lot of love and care went into these characters and it shows. Wormwood studios did a fantastic job on this game. I also love Wadjet and they work they do, and anyone who knows about their multiple endings for some of their games which is a great addition..... but Primordia has one of the best ending choices of all the games that actually left me feeling very content. No matter what this game will always be one of the top games I recommend to P&C adventure gamers. Last but not least- this game was in talks about it possibly being made into a TV show or movie. I haven't read anymore news on it since early 2024 but I hope something comes out of it....... because I really want to see this. The biggest con- is that there's not more games out there like this.
