## Primordia Description
What happened to the humans?

In a desolate, ruined world inhabited only by robots, the taciturn android Horatio searches for answers. Where did he come from? Where have all the humans gone? And what, if any, was his role in it?

Torn from his peaceful existence in the crashed airship, the UNIIC, Horatio and his sarcastic floating friend Crispin are forced to travel to Metropolis, City of Glass and Light, to retrieve their stolen power core. What they discover there changes their understanding of the world and their place in it, for better or worse.    

Full voice acting, featuring Logan Cunningham (the voice of Bastion) as Horatio.

-- Reviews --

Adventure Gamers - "Beautiful, surrealistic retro graphics; likeable characters and a deceptively sprawling plot." 4/5

Eurogamer - "Primordia is delightful, smart and packed with personality." 7/10

Rock Paper Shotgun - "A cast of thoroughly insane-in-the-short-circuited-membrane side characters keeps the ride nice and lively as well, complimenting the oppressively dreary setting with a strong mix of mystery driven drama, Old West frontier charm, and dark humor."

Gamezebo - "Primordia is a very good game, packed with enough secrets, surprises and twists to keep it interesting from start to finish." 4/5

## Primordia Reviews in United States

### ***** "A masterpiece"
If a game has Logan Cunningham and Abe Goldfarb in it, you know it’s going to be good. There’s a unique and imaginative world, a quirky cast of robots, melancholy humor, and a mysterious past to discover. Puzzles are standard fare for adventure games, some clever, some likely to inspire exclamations of “b’sod!”
-- Lingrush24, 2023-09-24

### ***** "Great game"
The plot, characters and overall story is well written. The artwork blends nicely with the adventure and the many puzzles and inventory items can change gameplay, endings. My low point on this game was the humor, a wisecracking robot companion that distracted from the adventure, the mood setting. Music and sounds are well crafted. Another adventure? Please.
-- Kaygeedeejay, 2022-10-14

### ****- "So close to flawless"
I enjoyed the game, it had interesting challenges and superbly atmospheric.  The artwork and environment was eerie and intriguing.  I wish it was a longer game.  My disappointment was the use of humor and the banter.  It ruined what I was hoping for a gritty serious adventure into a dark harsh world.   It degraded that effect for me.
-- Daimyo Mateo, 2022-04-22

### ****- "A classic adventure game to revive the genre"
Plot was good, puzzles were challenging enough, voiceover work was excellent, a retro vibe and feel even further peaked my interest. The only reason I didn’t give this title five stars is due to a crash that renders the game currently unfinishable. Said crash occurs later in the game involving a puzzle solution of melting a door. Research shows this crash has existed in the Steam forums from the PC version which was reported back in October of 2017. I hope one of the devs sees this particular review, as I would love to finish the title.

### ***** "A solid philosophical jaunt"
Playing through this game, I found plenty to think about - a bit of Foucault here (Domus and Megalopolis, Panopticon), Ayn Rand there, and a bit of Orwell too. Add to this no less than two disparate Messianic visions and your basic dystopic bargain, and you’ve got a lot to reflect on by game’s end. 

The game mechanics are well planned too. While it is always possible to get to a good ending and a bad ending, choices made along throughout the game will determine whether you can get the best ending and the worst ending. 
 and puzzles drive most of the action,
-- Richardf8, 2020-08-19

### ***** "A great traditional point and click adventure"
Masterful storyline. Short and sweet dialogs give you more game play. You play the game , it doesn’t play you. Music so perfect you forget it’s playing. Intense smart intuitive puzzles, some very tricky. Hard to put this game down. I love the characters’ naming conventions. Original scenery.
-- Ncadmin, 2020-05-10

### ***** "5 stars if you use walkthroughs on occasion."
Yes, I did not feel like dealing with the more frustrating figuring out how to do things. I had actually put this game down and forgot about it and then picked it back up after enjoying some of the other Wadjet Eye games. the story became more engaging and immersive as time went on. Great storyline.
-- Trazko, 2019-03-06

### ****- "Fun game but to many useless items"
This is a really good game with multiple endings. My only real complaint is that there are too many useless items and red herrings in the game.
-- Zick Wad, 2019-02-15

### ***** "Another marvelous adventure"
Once again an incredible story, great puzzles, and lots of heart and humor. Just waiting for the next WadjetEye game now that I’ve finally played ALL of them!
-- Zauberwelt, 2018-09-24

### ***** "Brilliant storytelling"
Great game
-- Dubs1, 2018-02-23

### ***** "Great throwback to the classics..."
This game really nails it on atmosphere and mood which is a big reason I love playing these games. You really get a sense of immersion in the world with this game and it's a cool world.  Also has a a good bit of wry humor but it's not overdone.  Voice acting is great and writing is really smart.  I play a lot of the newer point and click games and this one definitely stands out.
-- Peterd843, 2017-10-10

### ***** "Yes, but its great.."
As per a previous reviewer, I also found the graphics quite hard to see on an iPad. Despite that, I gave the game five stars because I loved it.
-- --mapster--, 2017-08-24

### *---- "Poor Graphics"
The graphics on my iPad Air are very pixilated, and it's hard to know what I'm looking at, even though the pictures in the App Store look crisp and clean.  In the few rooms I've been in so far, it's been hard to know what objects are in view.  Also, dialogue text appears and disappears very quickly, resulting in my not catching all of the plot.  If I continue playing, I may upgrade this rating, but for now, the graphics alone make it too difficult to consider finishing this game.   I recommend reading other reviews to see if these comments are trending.
-- Hangandsteve, 2017-07-24

### ****- "Has its flaws, but great story"
Pros: Great story and voice acting, beautiful "retro" graphics, some optional storyline choices/actions

Cons: Battery-burning app, AWFUL item detection on screen
-- cbmalta42, 2017-07-02

### ***** "Reminds me of kings quest but better!"
Excellent story! Game play is similar to kings quest, but far better, darker, deeper story. If the story is the most important part of the game them get this, if you want action and fighting, this is not for you.
-- seasjay, 2017-06-01

### ***** "So good it sticks with you"
This is a truly wonderful point and click adventure with very good art, voice work, and a fantastic story. By far the story and writing is my favorite part as the game tackles ideas such as sacrificing individuals identities for the sake of a more efficient system, which plays neatly into the question of the machines being more like humans or still just devices used to improve the system.
Great game, and a very good IOS port. 👍
-- Adventurelover, 2017-04-14

### **--- "Hints needed"
Graphics dark, blurry.  Need to be an engineer to understand and complete some tasks.  Bits and pieces needed to construct tools hidden in inscrutable places.  Good story line but must achieve difficult benchmarks to learn the secrets of Horatio.
-- reva702, 2017-04-10

### *---- "Terrible!"
Graphics are awful. Did they just dig this up from 1987?
-- Feline Muse, 2017-03-12

### *---- "Horrifingly bad"
Graphics belong on an Atari pong game The vocals sound like they were written for a children's Japanese afternoon cartoon. Take a close look at the pictures sampled on the app page above and you can see the level of the graphics. You would be better off with a comic book
-- w2waytoo, 2017-03-03

### ***** "Great adventure game"
I love adventure games, no hidden object, match 3 or intense battles. This was perfect. Just the right amount of difficulty, little hints from your helper without have to search for a walk through. The length was right for the price.
-- Izzyfoo85, 2017-02-05
