A really solid point & click adventure game where you're the sole crew member left alive on a space expedition. You're left to investigate an abandoned planetary outpost to figure out what happened. It gives me the same feeling as you get when you enter a half-destroyed vault in a Fallout game, knowing something completely fucked up happened there, and all you have is data logs and various remains to try and piece together exactly what went down.
This game is more on the linear side of things, which could be a pro or a con depending on how you like your adventure games. I personally didn't mind the linearity since it ensured I was making consistent progress and regularly uncovering new bits of information to keep me wanting to know more. Didn't finish since I've got a lot of games to go through in this bundle, but I could see myself coming back to it sometime.
