It truly gave me a sense of wonder floating around a space-ship and exploring Mars. Not much feels as magical to me as looking through the window of a spaceship onto the planet below and this game captured that feeling beautifully. The great narrative, which ultimately was much more of a personal story than I expected it to be, kept me hooked until the end.

The gameplay overall was nothing special, but I have to give a shout out to the climbing system, which was really unique and fun to play around with. This game very much tries to follow in the footsteps of big triple A story-driven games, and while the visuals (specifically the facial animations and some of the textures) struggle to keep up, the plot, characters (backed by some great voice acting) and audio made this a very memorable experience.
