    In the end, although The Signifier Director’s Cut has a solid intellectual conceit and an interesting story to tell, I’m just not convinced that a point-and-click puzzle game is the ideal medium for telling it. Despite its improvements, it’s still rough around the edges in lots of little ways. Still, the new release of the game manages to drop more than a few thought bombs for later contemplation, so while The Signifier Director’s Cut lacks in polish and execution, it is worth checking out for fans of the point-and-click genre and brainy games in general.

    Good but not great. Deals with advancing AI and the threats it poses. You are a scientists who is tasked with investigating a woman's death.Good but not great. Deals with advancing AI and the threats it poses. You are a scientists who is tasked with investigating a woman's death. So really you are an investigator, but you have a machine where you can explore peoples memories, you jump between objective memories and subjective memories solving light puzzles. The game is not long about 2 hours probably and while listed as horror in many game listings it is not horror in the traditional sense. No ghosts or paranormal activity it is psychological horror if anything.… Expand
