The flaws in the graphics set it back a little but all things considered, this is still a fun game. I was relatively entertained throughout most of the playthrough and found it had some fun twists and designs of the conscious robots. This is a captivating point-and-click game with more humor than you’d expect from a post-apocalyptic game. It was distracting, and pausing the gameplay to re-read simple lines a few times definitely held me up and impeded my game flow. Additionally, the overall graphics are pretty obviously made from a decade ago and sometimes even looked older than being ten years old. At several points throughout the game, I struggled to make out the words on screen because the letters blended, and lower case letters like ‘a’ and ‘o’ looked way too similar. Primordia uses a bright font that looks pixelated on a larger TV. My biggest gripe with the game is that the graphics did not translate well to switch. You’re given only a few options on-screen, and using the controller makes it tougher to select the options. I prefer playing Nintendo over any system, but this game was built on a PC, and I think it would’ve played better on that for several reasons. While some puzzles do get confusing, and I got stuck once or twice, this is a fun game with a couple of twists in the story. The light blue is eerie and futuristic, setting a tone for the rest of the game. I love the glow of Horatio’s mask and how Crispin’s light matches it. The dialogue was also really well done for a game that featured pretty heavy content, and it mixed in humor very well. The desert is scary, and the robot designs were intricate and original. The world in this game is very Star War-like and one that I enjoyed. Crispin adds comic relief and some one-liners that are funnier than you’d usually find in a game like this.
