NERO is pretty to look at but is decidedly lacking when it comes to substance or involving players in the intricate story it’s trying to tell.

Critic Reviews
N.E.R.O.: Nothing Ever Remains Obscure Review
Should you play N.E.R.O. Nothing Ever Remains Obscure? In short, yes. Although I don’t feel as though I connected with the game on the deep emotional level that the developer intended, you might and that could potentially provide you with a fantastic experience. It seems as though this game will affect each player in quite a unique way and that’s one of the main features that makes it worth playing. Due to the fact that the game has some many hidden meanings, I feel as though it depends on its community to figure out what’s going on and share it with others. N.E.R.O. has the potential to be very deep if you can connect with it and fully understand it.

A visually beguiling though relaxing explorative adventure, N.E.R.O fails to properly capitalise on its unique setting as its simple puzzles, brief duration, and lack of replayability ultimately damages its long-term appeal.
