Summary

Observation is a sci-fi thriller uncovering what happened to Dr. Emma Fisher, and the crew of her mission, through the lens of the station’s artificial intelligence S.A.M.

Really liked the gameplay, truly unique, clever and a good challenge. Graphics and audio design good too....just wasn't keen on the actual story and knowing what to do and where to go was hard at times but nice to play something different. Controls could of been easier. Not sure there is much replay value though.

Wish I could have some things explained to me, but I'm sure it made sense to normal people

Overall a pretty decent game with some annoyingly crippled controls that make navigation for the most past somewhat annoying. If you liked 2001 A Space Odyssey you'll probably like this. Could have been more memorable though.

The highlight of the game is that we have to use the AI SAM (for some reason in the Russian translation ITSELF, not SAM) to help the main character to understand what is happening at the station and the gameplay for AI gives a special charm to the game and the plot. For the most part, the game is a solution to a set of small puzzles that tell the story of the crew, as well as hints at the purpose of their presence here. Just the story is quite interesting and the denouement will surprise many. But it is very confusing facial animation, which is at a very low level and destroys the atmosphere. Each of the characters looks like a toy astronaut. The development of each compartment is performed at the proper level. I enjoyed exploring the station and learning the history of each of the crew members.
