Review of CTRL ALT EGO on Steam:

This is Fantastic.

So many comparing it with Prey when it's a very different beast. All it has in common with that is the 'emergent' puzzle solving and the fact it's set on a space station.

MY first thought: it's like Observation. Did you play Observation, the fun wee sci-fi game where you're a computer roving around cameras, flipping switches and solving puzzles in a space station orbiting Saturn? No, I'll bet you didn't you PHILESTINES. Well, anyway, the gameplay mechanic here is very similar, a digital entity bouncing around receptive nodes piloting bots and drinking juice. Yes, and in the game.

It's also a tiny bit like The Sentinel: Geoff Crammond's 8-bit Opus where you conscious-zapped from robot body to robot body to avoid the Titular overseer. Listen out for some music snippets that homage/directly riff on that old game's iconic sound effects: dun-dan-dun-dun-DUHHHN. But this game is more advanced and accessible that that hoary old classic.

I'm four levels in and having a great time. I've frozen more M.U.M.s than an explosion in Iceland. I've made DADs my [female dog]: "THIS IS WRONG". And I think the person guiding me via witty messages knows too much.
