    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A good idea, just not the best execution. The gameplay is interesting at points, but becomes stale. The story is okay. But for a game that becomes pretty abstract and weird, some of the main themes of the story feel like they get shoved in your face just a little bit. My main gripe with this game is that I feel like it's way too short considering its price. In total, it only offers about an hour and a half of gameplay. Even with the new lowered price of $8 (it used to be $10), I don't think that it's worth buying unless you get it for much cheaper. Expand

    Because its worlds are so expansive and fascinating, and because moving across them is such a pleasure, Corpse of Discovery might have been an all-time great had it been a straight exploration game. Instead, it grapples artlessly with a theme that has been done to death.

    It’s unfortunate that Corpse of Discovery can’t capitalize on it’s strong premise. Instead, it flounders, attempting to be profound and metaphysical but never managing to be anything more than “meh.”

    Corpse of Discovery could've been a worthwhile narrative experience had it not been ruined by its massive performance issues and obnoxious platforming gameplay.
