An absolute fantastic puzzle\platformer with atmosphere, a great soundtrack, intuitive puzzles\level design; and with just enough of a story to keep you interested. The game shines from it's simplicity; but yet challenging enough that it's not a cakewalk.

I beat the game in ~7 hrs; and most of the puzzles took ~5-8 minutes average (longer for the last few that really make you think).

My only con is that there isn't more!

If you like simple puzzle games with atmosphere, then for the price (especially if on sale) you can't go wrong.

An excellent point-click puzzle game made with claymation and cardboard backdrops. They story will keep you going to try and find the reason behind all the strange things going on around you.

My only 'con' is that Some of the puzzles (or sequences to solve puzzles) get confusing and you have to try and remember everything you've picked up on; but overall they're well done and will still keep you interested.

The dev(s) are still actively developing and improving the game. For $17 it's a bargain.

An excellent puzzle game with beautiful soundtrack and visuals and enough story to keep you motivated. If you enjoy games like Myst then this is highly recommended!

A short, fairly simple puzzle game on the moon, and it's free; what's not to like?

Not a terrible FPS with some cool, unique features. While an FPS at it's core; there's still some lite RPG\stealth\open world elements added in. This is not a "twitch" shooter; it does require patience and a little bit of strategy as you are usually outnumbered\outgunned.

The devs suggest to play the game in black&white; but there's options to change the saturation to your liking (or turn it off). Performance was good; with only a ~5fps drop in some areas (shadows\water); otherwise 60+ and no stutters\hiccups. I didn't notice any bugs or glitches.

Unfortunately, most of those "unique" features I mentioned fall short, making you wish the game was just a little more in-depth.

All in all, not a terrible purchase if you like these types of games , especially for $10 or less.

A wonderful puzzle game with great atmosphere, good stor, excellent puzzles\design; and secrets galore!

If you like games similar to Portal, this game will not dissapoint! Plenty of content to keep you busy, a cool soundtrack, and a story that will keep you interested.

I could go into the usual list of pros/cons; but the reality is that the game is dead without a steady MP base. There's no way to gain xp, no way to upgrade your ship/weapons, and in the end no point in playing (short of the few training missions that get boring fast).

While there are SV meetups where a few of the active community gather to play, I don't usually have the luxury to plan my day/weekends around gaming. I want to be able to jump in whenever I have some free time and have fun.

I'm thinking I made a mistake in buying the game at all, but at least I bought it on sale, so it's not a big loss. Just sucks because this is a game I could really like - if there was any reason to play it

Waking Mars was an excellent platformer with cool science elements that keep your attention. The game requres a little bit of strategy in some areas, and adds a few puzzles to keep you thinking. The story is interesting, combing science with theories and fiction.

There are at least three different endings, depending on certain chioces you've made torwards the end of the game.

My only 'cons' are that some of the objectives aren't always marked or triggered right away, so sometimes you go right past and don't relize it. However there's usually enough information available to guide you in the right direction without holding your hand.

Avery solid game for cheap that will give 5-8 hours of good entertainment.

A very good puzzle game with excellent gfx,animations, sound, and puzzle construction. Nothing really too hard, but it will keep you thinking. There's even optional hints in case you get stuck.

The only con I can think of is that it's too short (5 puzzles iirc), but for $5-10 it's definitely worth it.

A very good platformer with great visuals and a good story. The controls are sometimes clunky, as it was made for consoles with controllers. But I didn't have any problems completing the game, and I would love to see a sequel!!
