God is a Geek: 7/10 (Adam Cook)
So much of the actual game is busy work, going from place to place and rebooting systems, and on the third time it feels too much. The refusal to accept ADR1FT being part of the “walking sim” crowd has made it less of an easy recommendation, but a recommendation nonetheless, because although it can be frustrating, it’s hauntingly beautiful, and a sensational example of how a well crafted environment can be enough to pull you across the finish line. For all its missteps, I wanted to see the credits, and I’m glad I did.
Game Informer: 8/10 (Jeff Cork)
The game and its inception are inexorably linked, and it deserves a mention. Designer Adam Orth conceived the game after the much-publicized fallout from a series of controversial tweets he made while working at Microsoft. Oshima’s plight is more immediate and the stakes are significantly higher, but the parallels aren’t easy to ignore. As you listen to audio logs and read messages from the crew, you get a sense that the commander bears a larger responsibility in what happened. Whether Oshima makes it home or not, a larger reckoning awaits – and quite possibly, redemption.
