    A Rite from the Stars is worth playing through at least once, if only to appreciate how rich Makoan culture is, but it fails to improve upon the point-and-click genre in any substantial way.

    I do appreciate the large diversity of challenges A Rite from the Stars has up its sleeve, but their quality is very uneven and some of the ideas should have been scrapped mercilessly. The gameplay is not very intuitive and the dark, obscure visuals are a trip back to the year 2000. [09/2018, p.64]

    A game with a very deep story and much more adult than it looks. I would love an updated remaster because visually it has aged badly.
