Deep Space: Unknown Universe Reviews

this game is terrible lol

Very good puzzle game. It is small game of 5 planets and every one of them has unique puzzle. Every puzzle is hard to solve and require logical thinking. Strongly recommend to buy the game and solve those puzzles, coz after you do, you can say u are an inteligent person. Game needs a little bit user friendly interface, but it is no problem, its not the point of the game. English and Czech dabing.

can't get the game to load past main screen, system meets all requirements but only the options,and credits buttons light up? must be a glitch in the game.

Pros: - Alice's voice is cute. - Feel the desolation of being stranded in space. - Always cool to visit other planets. Cons: - In just one of the dialogue lines, Alice's voice will suddenly be replaced by a loud, harsh sounding machine, unintentionally causing an audio jump scare. It would be better to have no voice for that line, than to replace her voice with that horrifying robot. - The first puzzle I did was intentionally designed in such a way that it will randomly be unsolvable, forcing you to restart from the beginning until you get lucky enough that it's in a solvable state at the end. This is because [spoiler]sliding puzzles are not meant to have duplicate pieces. There's no distinguishing between orange block #1 and orange block #2.[/spoiler] - The second puzzle I did with the pillars and lights bugged out and stopped functioning completely, forcing me to restart the entire game from a new save file. Also, the audio hints had nothing to do with the puzzle, and I had to look up a walkthrough to solve it. So far it seems like the game is just padding the playtime hours out with bugs and disrespect for the player's time. Will update review next time I play. Update: - The third puzzle was fun, but only because [spoiler] it was Minesweeper. I actually had more fun with this Minesweeper variant than any other part of the game.[/spoiler] - The fourth puzzle wasn't so bad, but then you have to do it five times in a row without saving or quitting. No respect for the player's time. - The fifth puzzle I did seemed designed to just take up time, not brainpower, to solve. - The end of the game made me [spoiler]laugh[/spoiler]. - I saw that my playtime exceeded 2 hours, making a refund impossible. From this point of view, the game is an overwhelming success. It was designed to take longer than 2 hours to complete, and that was achieved. Well played, developer. Update 2: 6 months later, I've come back and changed my review to be marked as recommended. The planets and puzzles in this game stuck in my memory. But much more importantly, I can still hear the ship AI's gentle voice in my mind, soothing me in my darkest moments. Her name was Alice...
