ROUTINE

A good game made for a somewhat niche audience. Beautiful graphics and eerie sound design make the game shine, but the mechanics were a bit clunky. Amazing atmosphere that always puts you on edge keeping you immersed and feeling grounded. 8.5/10, I enjoyed my time playing but it's definitely not for everybody.

I love how if you camp in a room for too long I just wait's outside, I hid under the desk and left the game to make tea and in that time it entered and scaned the room I was hiding in 3 times! But when I left the room; it was waiting In a dark room across from mine and jumped me. The 05's A.I. sometimes switch between the main 2 to cover different areas. This game actually had me running for my life with ever metallic heavy step. And the people who designed and did voice line's for the I.C. droids took there time and made a likable and cute impression. Keep up the atonishingly good work!

Loved it , been hooked. Alien Isolation vibes with puzzles that put the brain to work. Game doesnt hand hold at all, with a cosmic horror mystery. Dont listen to the complainers and experience this!

ROUTINE is the first game I've ever reviewed. I absolutely loved it. This is the first game in a very long time that not only held my interest from beginning to end, but also genuinely scared me. The retro world design, the tone and atmosphere were PERFECT. iC bots were great There were only a few things I wish were a little different. SPOILER I really enjoyed the designs of the Type 05s. I thought they were amazing and terrifying at the same time. They unfortunately were nowhere to be found in the second half of the game. They were however replaced by something much scarier. Some of the game's mechanics never came back either. In the second half, I never had to use the bullet projectile feature on the C.A.T. again. Same with the finger print puzzles. I still used the UV function a lot, but I enjoyed the idea of thinking outside the box to learn codes. Although there were parts of the game I wish were different, I still loved it. ROUTINE is a prime example of why I play videogames.

The ending felt very anticlimatic the ending felt like there needed to be more, like backstory or what happened to the lunar base, did we exterminate the aliens? all these questions unanswered, also what was the point of initiating the 2 prongs? Does anyone have answers
