This review contains minimal spoilers about mechanics to illustrate how good this game is.

    Pushing the boundaries of games as a medium, one loop at a time.

    Clearly it looks at awesome games like Majora's Mask for inspiration, but with a lot of QoL enhancements that make this space detective/archeology simulator an adventure with little frustration (depending on how much attention you pay to what you read and how well you can put things together to solve the knowledge puzzles you'll be facing throughout the game).

    The biggest QoL improvement over the Groundhog Day formula, is the level of freedom this game allows.

    You can go right to the end of the game in one loop if you know what you're doing. There's also a TON of shortcuts and faster paths that once you know them save you a ton of time.

    You even get a "Rest" mechanic that lets you choose EXACTLY how much time you want to skip to solve a time sensitive puzzle, unlike Majora's Mask which lets you skip in 12 hour intervals, making you stand around for NPCs to show up for several minutes.

    Seriously, this game is REALLY good. It might be some of the best sci-fi content in recent history, since even sci-fi movies have been kinda stale lately, the last good piece of big budget sci-fi that's not goddamn Avengers or such was Interstellar.

    And that came out 8 years ago.    … Expand

    Outer Wilds…..oh man, this game caught me completely off guard. I knew this was a puzzle game, and I’m not exactly that big into the genre, so I wasn’t really too sure if I would enjoy this. After reading reviews and its accolades, I decided it wouldn’t hurt to at least give it a shot, and I’m glad I did.

After reading reviews and its accolades, I decided it wouldn’t hurt to at least give it a shot, and I’m glad I did.

    Be warned, this is a puzzle game. There are no power-ups, no weapons, no enemies or bosses, and no combat. What you have is a sense of exploration. The basic premise of this title is that you have a spaceship, planets to explore, and a story to piece together. That’s it. But, here’s the thing, this is where the game absolutely shines. From the get go, you can take off in your spaceship in any direction you desire; it’s completely up to you where you want to go. However, it’s not that easy to just pick a place and go exploring; you have to understand and figure out the secret to these planets, and to do so, you have to understand what is going on from the bits and pieces of lore you come across. Arming yourself with knowledge will get you one step closer to figuring out what’s going on. Unlike in other games where obtaining a new power-up will open a new path for you, that path has been open from the start, the answer always right in front of you, but it’s up to you to tease it out.

    I will say this, I did not expect Outer Wilds to be this good. I honestly think it’s a masterpiece. I get it, maybe learning that it’s a puzzle game might lose your interest a bit, but it’s more heavily focused on the exploration aspect than solving a complex puzzle. The more you explore, the closer you are to finding the solution. Seriously, get this; you won’t regret it one bit.    … Expand

    - Quality: Fairly basic graphics, but still manages to create an atmospheric environment. (8/10)
    - Style (-uniqueness): Every planet and location feels different, and every tool and system you discover has something visually unique to it. (10/10).
    - User Interface: Very minimalistic, but tells you everything you would want to know. The game doesn’t hold your hand with elaborate maps, as this game is about exploration. (10/10)

    Sound: 10/10

    - Voice acting: Not relevant. (-/10)
    - Music: Incredible score. Every location and discovery has something distinct yet very fitting. Gives you goosebumps. (10/10)
    - Sound effects: Masterfully crafted, gives you great feedback when you need to rely on sounds. (10/10)

    Gameplay: 9.3/10

    - Controls (ease of use): The ship’s controls are difficult by design. Similarly, your suit has limited resources. I found the controls reasonably responsive, I only had some issues with my drone. (9/10)
    - Unique systems: No spoilers, but there are so many unique systems you HAVE to discover and understand that it is incredible. (10/10)
    - Difficulty (settings, scaling, etc.): Challenging at points. Also, you don’t level up in the game, you gain knowledge and get more experienced with the controls. (10/10)
    - Grind: The game is about exploration, and you have to visit some locations a frustrating amount of times, in my opinion. (8/10)

    Story/Lore/World: 8.8/10

    - Characters: There are quite a few characters in the game, but I wouldn’t say they are especially memorable. Some characters you actually interact with, some you only read about. I would say that the characters may be the game’s weakest point. (6/10)
    - Writing quality: There is a lot of reading in this game. It is kind of weird sometimes: you read casual conversation, yet you gain immense knowledge from them. Some conversations can be witty or funny at times, a great experience overall. (9/10)
    - World design: Every location is so unique and the world is so alive. My only issue is that the solar system and the planets are very small, but it is impressive how much can fit in such tight spaces… (10/10)
    - Story/Lore: There is an incredible story told here, that you have to piece together yourself. Same with the lore. No spoilers, you have to experience this yourself! (10/10)

    Technical: 9.5/10

    - Optimization: Never had a problem with FPS drops. (10/10)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While I do understand the good reviews a few things made the game very frustrating. Be it accidentally crashing into the sun (manually or on autopilot), the anglerfish or the dark caverns with jumping puzzles. The 22 minute loop, while core part of the game, felt too short, sometimes when I made progress it was already time and the trek back (the hanging city for example) was annoying. I also had trouble entering the ATP and had to look up a guide on how to do it and problems with the anglerfish (I found all clues but somehow didn't think about the thrusters).

    I loved the music and aesthetics and thought a lot about the game, even while I was not playing which rarely happens nowadays. Overall a nice experience but some clues just went over my head.    … Expand

    However, at a couple of places i just could not work out what to do, which forced me to look up a guide on youtube. Now for me, this made the game a lot less appealing to me, as it completely ruined the immersion and made me quite frustrated because of it. I actually quit the game for a week , and only came back to it because a friend begged me to finish it because the ending is amazing.

    So I played it again, and i beat the game. And he was right, the ending of the game is absolutely magnificent, scary and thought provoking. Now i won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen the end ing, but trust me, play it through to the end, it's worth it.

    -----------------
    Long review:
    (10-no problem, 9- few minor problems, 8- few major problems, 7- a lot of major p., 6- it delivers on the fun, but not more, 5- it tries hard but fall short , 4-1- different variants of sh**)

    ---{Story 10/10}--- (the main dish of this game)
    -horror: while not a horror game, the feeling of fear, dread, hopelessness can be felt.
    -story arc and lore: every now and then the game resets, leaving you only with the info you gathered till that moment. and while everything you read is more or less a hint for you, they also act as lore, giving context to everything. a lot of the games feel is to empathizing with those who came before.
    -realism: the game is inherently a fantasy, trying hard to talk science with real-world equivalent, and at the end it delivers.

    ---{Visuals: 9/10}--- (-1 for lack of small detail)
    -Detail only where needed; the game has nearly no visual detail in places you wont go to too often.
    -Cartoonish; it fits the theme
    -vibrant and alive; everything continues to go, as if you didn't exist,
    -variety; many different places with different looks and styles.
    -artful: in a lot of the places, you just want to look at.

    ---{Sound 10/10}---
    great timing: the tracks themself are simple, but combined with the enviorment, and timing, and you have an impact

    ---{Gameplay: 8.5/10}--- (-1.5 for performance)
    -connect the dots: the game really helps you to make connections. even giving you "ship logs" which is technically a board of all things you saw and read, and it even connects the dots for you. BUT, you have to use your brain.
    for example: you see a corpse in a room, with the text in its hand saying "im going to put this text outside of the room"; that means this person died before he could do that; now you have to ask, why is he dead, he doesn’t mention pain or anything, he just die suddenly?.
    if this process feels natural, you’ll be ok.
    -performance: it won’t run smooth, it’s to be expected of a simulation game, but this is a bit worse than expectation
    -player driven: you have to ask and look for answers. Why you do that, will change over time.
    -Sandbox: nearly all you do has no impact as it resets after a while, the only thing you can change, is your knowledge of the world
    -Ship control: physics based. it’s not a simple point and move, you will get better at it while you go forward.
    objective system: while the game has a "go here" system (a sound beam detector), nearly all stuff are in places that either look cool, or act in odd ways (e.g.: smoke going up in the middle of nowhere)
    -Text hunting*: a lot of text all around the place, but written well, just long enough to give depth, and since you might read something you shouldn't, it has hints to places to understand more.
    if you’re like me, and only read a book when you run out of sleep pills, then you will have a hard time in this game, (as i did) my advice is to set the language to something else (so to be unable to read) and explore the visuals for a while, remember, this game resets every now and then, so nothing you do has an effect, so don't worry about being spoiled with what you see INGAME (not on google)
    ---------------------
    -Audience: anyone willing to listen (for at least 1 hour)
    -PC Requirements: a good pc, but the game is also inherently slow-paced, so even 20fps would be enough.
    -Difficulty: This was the first time I played an adventure game. For me connecting the dots and getting around was easy. So much so, that I finished the game without even exploring 2 of the planets (I found the secret they had to offer by accident and trial and error)
    -Game Time: I finished it in 10 hours
    -Price: Fair enough
    -Bugs: Some bugs, nothing to important
    -updates, DLC, replayability: the only thing you hate in this game (if you finish it) is the fact that when your journey ends, its over. Nothing more. nothing less. you can now go from new game to finish in 15 minutes or even less. I’m really jealous of those whom haven’t been spoiled by the game    … Expand

    There is no progression in this game other than gaining of new knowledge which gives you a better understanding of the rules of these worlds and how to solve their riddles. It's like getting a key item at the end of a maze, except there is no item but a few new neural connections in your brain which are just as good at getting you through your next challenge, and it works great.

    The controls are not intuitive to most people at first but you get used to them very quickly (what do you know, flying a spaceship can be hard, who would have thought), the puzzles are all challenging without being unfair (ok, maybe some of them were a bit too hard for my liking but not enough to make me mad about them) and the game does a good job helping you manage the information you gather via your ship's log, which is a great boon in my opinion.

    Other than that the art style is simplistic but effective, the soundtrack is top-notch and I can seriously not think of a single moment throughout my play through where I felt like I wanted to put down the controller and leave the game.

    This game encapsulates exploration and curiosity better than any book, movie, Tv show, or any piece of media ever. I'd argue it does so perfectly.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What can I say about Outer Wilds.

    All I can say is it is the best game I have ever played.
    Now you may say that I've only got 20 or so hours on it. That is because it is all I needed to experience how good this game is.
    This Indie game does a better job of creating a gameplay loop than most triple A titles and creates the best experience of exploration in the world. The gameplay is simple with about 3 or four main mechanics to learn and is very intuitive.

    The world in general is amazingly crafted and refined it is not huge it is not limitless but the world of this game will have you invested and interested in the story and in fact the only thing I will talk about in detail is how beautiful this story is.

    The story is sweet; short enough if you know what you are doing you can complete the game in 10 mins.
    But this story is about the why. In this dark and cold universe we call home, on this **** little planet called earth. Why? Why listen to music if it is going to be forgotten? Why care if this Universe will be snuffed out in a moments notice? When all is said and done will you be remembered? Why then do you talk to people? Why then do you sit around the campfire and sing?

    'The outer wilds is an optimistic game about nihilism. It's a game with no invisible walls, you can complete it in ten minutes if you know what to do -which you won't for hours- and the only limit is knowledge. It's a game like no other. The universe is big and impossible and daft and you. You happen to be experiencing it at the exact same point as the Outer Wilds as well. Embrace that coincidence. Come on what are you waiting for? The sun could explode tomorrow.'
    - Daniel 'Nerdcubed' Hardcastle 2019

    My personal rating - better than any game out there (atm of 2020). Play it. Experience it. Re-live it. In this beautiful supernova called life you can only play this game once, and I implore you this game is like no other. This is my favourite game of all time it could be yours    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Awesome just awesome. I haven't written a review for a game before but after finishing this game, I had to do it. Just going to keep it short though.

    The soundtrack is amazing. It creates perfect atmospheres for the different locations and situations that you find yourself in the game.

    The gameplay is awesome. This game has some of the best physics in any game. Flying around and exploring a fully working solar system is crazy. There's this sense of urgency in almost every planet. It feels like you have to be fast or you might get crushed by sand or maybe fall into a black hole after the crust of the planet crumbles down.

    The story is great. First I thought it was rather boring but after i discovered more and more in the solar system i started to really enjoy the story and the mysteries of the game. The final trip you make from the Ash twin project to the vessel is nothing but epic. After learning everything you can and gathering all the knowledge, you make the epic final journey. It also feels like there's actual stakes at play because after taking out the warp drive, the loop technically ends. And if you die, it's all over.

    Truly awesome game.    … Expand

    This game is an excellent way to show the immersive experience of "human fear comes from the unknown", and players will continue to explore under the drive of curiosity. At the same time, there is no lack of scientific combination and fantasy of the universe, which greatly stimulates Interest in play.

However, this game is allowing players to experience countless cycles of life and death.

    Phénoménal. J'ai commencé le jeu ne connaissant absolument rien dessus, et je suis extrêmement heureux que j'aie pu découvrir le jeu de A à Z. Ce qui m'a le plus frappé, c'est qu'à chaque fois que je découvrais quelque chose, le jeu me donnait envie d'en savoir plus.

    Histoire : L'histoire du jeu est décidemment l'un des gros points forts de celui-ci. Sans rentrer dans les spoilers, même    Phénoménal. J'ai commencé le jeu ne connaissant absolument rien dessus, et je suis extrêmement heureux que j'aie pu découvrir le jeu de A à Z. Ce qui m'a le plus frappé, c'est qu'à chaque fois que je découvrais quelque chose, le jeu me donnait envie d'en savoir plus.

    Histoire : L'histoire du jeu est décidemment l'un des gros points forts de celui-ci. Sans rentrer dans les spoilers, même si la totalité du jeu ne contient aucun doublage, le texte est plus que suffisant pour faire ressentir des émotions fortes au joueur, sans parler de la fin.

    Exploration : L'autre gros point fort du jeu pour moi est l'exploration (et heureusement pour un jeu d'exploration spatial). J'ai vraiment apprécié que le jeu te lâche dans l'espace sans aucun objectif (mis à part un dans les cinq premières minutes de jeu) et te permet de librement explorer les planètes dans l'ordre de ton choix. Cette liberté et le journal de bord qui compile tes trouvailles en font l'un des jeux les plus jouissifs dans la découverte de secrets.

    Gameplay : L'un des éléments du jeu qui me faisait le plus peur en le lançant était la maniabilité du vaisseau et la gravité des planètes qui peuvent aisément être bancals avec un jeu dans l'espace, mais je suis content de m'être complètement trompé. Le vaisseau est très agréable à diriger et le système de gravité du jeu est vraiment excellent. L'un des seuls points faibles du jeu pour moi sont les énigmes. Bien que certains sont très intéressants (notamment ceux en rapport au temps, ceux qui ont joué voient ce que je veux dire), la majorité restent très basiques et surtout un en particulier qui m'a forcé à regarder un let's play pour trouver la soluce. Cependant ce n'est qu'un point faible mineur qui ne diminue en rien mon estime pour le jeu.

    Musique : OST incroyable, les musiques d'ambiance sont au top mais je garde surtout en tête une musique en particulier

    Conclusion : Honnêtement, je sais pas quoi dire d'autre. Je conviens que le jeu n'est pas fait pour tout le monde. Si votre truc c'est l'action et les jeux "rapides", Outer Wilds n'est pas fait pour vous malheureusement ! En revanche, si vous aimez les énigmes, les mystères, l'exploration, l'espace et même un peu de philosophie, alors foncez !    … Expand

    2. The game has a SLOW START. it takes a little while to get going but once you do there is no stopping.

    3. If you get stuck USE THE SHIP LOG. In watching 3 people play through outer wilds the biggest mistake I see is people not using the ship logs rumor mode.

    4. DON'T LOOK ANYTHING UP. Ok, maybe a puzzle solution here or there but having the ending or any other plot points spoiled without the context of playing the rest of the game removes all of their impact.

    Nextly, I would like to address a few null complaints that baffle me as to how they were conceived. Many people complain about there being no saves but there is nothing to save. I really don't understand this one. There is no inventory, no level system, or anything. The only thing that needs to be saved is the info you gather, and what do you know, it is! Another one of the complaints is for the physics. I don't need to go into how every planets orbit is dynamically rendered to get the point across that the physics are well thought out. The final 2 common complains I already mostly covered however I will restate them. If you are complaining about controls, then you are using mouse and keyboard instead of the intended way of playing with controller. If you think the game is slow or you feel lost, get past early game and use the ship logs rumor mode. Thank you and goodbye    … Expand

    This game revived space exploration as a concept for me. The story you uncover has plot twists and all that despite it not being a linear sort of progression like traditional story telling.

    Very strongly recommended. This space exploration game taking place in a small solar system is an experience never seen before in a game. The soundtrack awesome.

This space exploration game taking place in a small solar system is an experience never seen before in a game. The soundtrack awesome. While the graphics "quality" won't knock your socks off, there are numerous visual spectacles that will blow you away. There are no upgrades, power-ups, or levels. All you have is your ship, your character, and the knowledge you gain along the way about the worlds around you and the secrets that make them tick. It's little secret that you play within a brief time loop. So not only are you finding out what info you can, piecing together this info as you go, but you have something to motivate you to do so with expediency. In addition it means you don't have to concern yourself with any sort of survival mechanics that would otherwise bog down the experience (they simply don't exist in the game). The only downside is that you can only play the game for the first time once as upon learning what you need to know to succeed, you can (and must) beat the game within one time loop.

    "If you could wipe your brain of a game to experience it for the first time again, what game would you say?" Outer Wilds is the first thing to come to my mind every single time.    … Expand

    I can't speak highly enough of this game. If you want an adventure, this is a nonstop trip of wonder in a fascinating world. The game gives you the reigns and lets you discover its mysteries with interlocking and interesting puzzles. It is a truly unique experience and one of the best games ever made.

    Outer Wilds is one of the best game ever made. It's one of those hidden gems, a diamond in the rough so to speak.

Andrew Prahlow created an amazing soundtrack that fits with this game so well that if it wasn't there then the game would lose most of it's value. The soundtrack is so emotional especially no really only if you've beaten the game, Generally The game is so emotional to the point that it can't be considered a casual video game for fun but a masterpiece of art. 99% of people who play the whole game through agree that it is an amazing experience and it must be played with as little knowledge of the game it's self before playing. I urge anyone who is reading this review to please go into the game blind. Don't look up guides for any of the puzzles. Trust me when I say this. Once you are done with the game you will wish to wipe your memory of the game and play it over again as if you were playing again for the first time.… Expand

    A game about finding bits and pieces of the story of what happened in a solar system. But it's not that simple - you are going to have to become an expert ship pilot, learn the intricacies of exploring volatile planets, connecting scientific concepts, and truly get to know the entire solar system front to back before you can say you understand what you set out to find.

    Outer Wilds is one of those games that stay with you forever. Other than that is kinda weird talking about this game, the experience shouldn't be spoiled because the nature of it's intended mechanics and the way you experience the discovery of the puzzle that the solar system is is only yours so the moment when you play Outer Wilds is always the perfect one.

    The game is a cozy space exploration game that asks you to solve the gigantic puzzle that is the solar system. Stuck somewhere? go to another planet you might find the answer there or another piece of the puzzle waiting to be entangled,.

    The music keeps this leitmotif through all of the galaxy, its menus an eventually it's endings. Once you find it it will stay with you forever like the game.

No importa cuanto tiempo pase, siempre voy a recordar este juego y pensar "ojala volverlo a jugar por primera vez".

    Outer Wilds is rife with breathtaking sights and sounds, and at the very least, no one could accuse it of being unambitious. Mobius Digital may be a small team but, almost paradoxically, they achieve a remarkable sense of scope by keeping things modest. However, their work suffers from the glacial pace of progress and a hands-off approach to storytelling. My biggest issues – a lack of combat, direction, or material rewards – are obviously deliberate, bold choices on the part of the devs, and I commend Mobius for them while also chiding the cold, inscrutable product that resulted. I admire Outer Wilds, but I don’t love it.

    This temporally unique game adds something new with your every death and moves the story forward beautifully. The environments are breathtaking, the music will soothe you. This is the perfect game for those of you who are, above all, curious.

    For those who won’t be deterred by the endless deaths and time-looped backtracking in Outer Wilds, its intriguing mystery and non-linear exploration of an entire solar system will be a novel and deeply engaging experience.
