Albedo: Eyes From Outer Space

The trailer is what intrigued me to get Albedo. Don't let it fool you like it did me. Albedo is one of the worst games I've played and I'm usually someone who rarely comes across a game I don't like. I immediately disliked Albedo from the very first room. The voice acting has no emotion. Story is incoherent at best. You'll spend most of the game not knowing why you're doing the things you're doing. The controller configuration is a nuisance. Having to scroll through an inventory, select the item, then scroll through the item's actions while being chased by an alien is not fun. I beat the game using a guide because I unfortunately spent money on it and wanted to get through it quick. A guide is a tremendous help for the achievements as they're easy to get but easy to miss because the achievements are just plain stupid. At least it was on sale when I bought it. If the developers make another game, I hope they learned from Albedo. I will be very wary. Otherwise, stay far away from this.

If you like "bad but fun" games and like a really corny story line, then this game is for you. A bit janky but nothing that impedes play. Puzzles are very reminiscent of old point-and-click adventures. Only one significant problem. The bloom and contrast can be harsh on the eyes. If you're light sensitive or get a headache easily, then I'd avoid this.

I love puzzle games but this game is just simply not worth anything but free. Terrible voice acting, puzzles, and confusing controls cause me to believe this game should have stayed in development. SAVE YOUR MONEY!

This game does not support inverted game play and that should be stated in the game's description.

I feel a little bad dumping on a game, not being able to make one myself, but come on. This game appeared quaint from its trailer but makes me want to huck my controller at the wall. I've gamed for over 25 years, so I can handle a challenge, yet I can't even get out of the intro basement! Nothing about this game seems intuitive to me and the lack of y-inversion just kills it. Even though I love a good B-movie, this one's beyond me. Oh well, there go THOSE two hours of my life.
