    horror theme games had a tough spot this year, this one is no exeption the whole game feels like it's tryining to imitate other games and fails to do so and the scares and voises are pathetic, to say the least

    Ugh. Just awful. If you only look at Steam, you might get the idea that this game is the second coming of System Shock 2; nothing could be further from the truth. Abysmal AI, horrible level design, lots of bugs (at least one of which stops the game dead in its tracks), goofy monologues from characters that make no sense half the time, and generally primitive gameplay which pretty muchUgh.

    May be the game like System Shock series but in these days, we don't see games like that. So this game is nostalgic. And so my point is 10 for Solarix.

    Solaris is an interesting exemple of good intentions that falls short on execution.

    At times the atmosphere is quite well realised, like the 'Aliens' inspired outpost with torrential rain fall or searching a derelict space craft in a swampy marsh region. If you can accept a game that does not have AAA values, you may find Solarix a strangely compelling proposition.

    The makers of Solarix wanted to follow in the footsteps of System Shock 2 and Dead Space, but the result is just awful.

    Pathetic AI and loads of bugs and flaws drag down what was a promising game. [07/2015, p.63]

    Solarix could bow to the old sci-fi gaming with dignity, but due to the botched artificial intelligence, confusing level design and half-baked ideas it turned into its caricature.
