    Better visuals than the original.

    I okayed the original when it came out, and I must say I really loved it. Observer Redux does it even better, the graphics is better, and from what I can tell, there immersion is deeper. I could play now the game at 60 F... Read Full Review

    Ok indie sci-fi horror

    Technically the game doesn't do much wrong - the graphics are effective and the impressive soundscape does everything it's meant to to provide plenty of atmosphere/horror. That said, Rutger Hauer's voice work as the play... Read Full Review

    Pshychedelic but not really fun

    Hands down the most psychedelic game I've ever played so please heed the warnings about seizures and epilepsy seriously. Even though I never had issues with nausea sea sickness or anything that game managed for the firs... Read Full Review
