The Message from Deep Space

First contact you solve yourself, worth the geometry grind

Boss rush that shines, then hides its ending behind no-hit runs

Inventive pull-and-stretch puzzles, dulled by guesswork and stray QTEs

A quiet dream to wander, if the stutter lets you

Guybrush Returns Sharp, The Ending Doesn't Land

Gorgeous descent into Hell, tripped by run-ending crashes

Rooms that fund each other, until NG+ scaling and crashes intrude

Gorgeous, funny adventure undone by soft-locks and a cliffhanger

Paradigm-switching brilliance locked behind twenty hours of hallway
