- “Good, rich story and cool puzzles.”
- “Interesting science fiction game where you're exploring through the mind of one of the characters via simulations to undergo a sort of mental training to increase the success rate of the upcoming mission.”
- “Each character's unique personality, story, and relationship with the main character Austin is well told with a good degree of realism.”
- “Since it is a puzzler with a very shallow and absurd story posing as science fiction, any scientific knowledge we have now renders the story basis as purely nonsensical fantasy and not sci-fi.”
- “Poor writing here only strengthened my belief that the lack of a good script for a credible story is one of the major problems here - like, for instance, that horrible fetch quest with nine pieces of scrap.”
- “This is 'the anatomy of a disaster part II', but I loved 'the fall of Lazarus', and really disliked this one from the get-go when I read those ridiculous premises for the story.”
