    This is the kind of game that will have you showing up a bit bleary-eyed at work, because you couldn’t quite bring yourself to stop playing late into the night.

    Traitors Gate is challenging and interesting to play, especially for fans of hi-tech gadgetry, though perhaps it is not for the easily frustrated.

    Isn't an excellent game, but it's very good.

    Nicely designed, having all the best elements of adventure gaming: detailed prerendered scenes, stunning and accurate looking cut scenes, a well-developed storyline, and puzzles that are thought through.
  6. Adrenaline Vault
    70
    As I stayed with it and progressed through the obstacles, I found this taut adventure to be really gripping, with an expanding range both diverse and enjoyable and I wanted to come back to it over and over again to make it to the end.
  7. GameSpy

    An average game that tries to be more than it really is.
  8. Game Chronicles
    60
    While it’s far from the perfect adventure title, Traitors Gate does provide real world puzzle solving in a somewhat interesting environment, something that is pretty much missing from the market otherwise.
  9. CNET Gamecenter
    60
    This is a nice alternative to the spoon-fed clues you get in so many adventure games.

    You’re not likely to be that disappointed with Traitors Gate, but then again the entire experience isn’t likely to become something you’ll cherish, either.

    Twenty dollars buys many things, but if used to purchase a copy of "Traitor's Gate," peace of mind won't be one of them.
  12. All Game Guide
    50
    It's unfortunate so much effort clearly went into the game with the result being a lackluster presentation that is not enough to truly showcase its good qualities.
  13. Hot Games
    50
    It won't last long, but it is an interesting diversion.

    This game is very challenging, ill give it that but if you dont have a walk through for it the game can take forever! There is way too much This game is very challenging, ill give it that but if you dont have a walk through for it the game can take forever! There is way too much disk swapping and the graphics and music is pretty choppy. There are too many objects that you have to pick up and too many places to go. But with all of that aside its sort of an addictive game and it keeps you wanting to play some more.… Full Review »

I dont know what you all are thinking when you say its bad. Its the only game hat has the cool environment and the endless pathways. Also, the puzles are actually realistic unlike Schizm and Myst. Overall, a great buy!… Full Review »
