    This game sucked on so many levels, from the main character to the story and to the puzzles. The puzzles were so easy that i was simply bored and when i did come across a hard one it was like you just know how to solve it. The story and that ending was bad and the main character was annoying the way he talked after about 20mins i hated him. The only good thing about this game is theThis game sucked on so many levels, from the main character to the story and to the puzzles.

There are plenty other puzzle games infinitely better than this on the ps4. Just watch some of the walkthrough and you'll see… Expand

    Jeu d'énigmes à la Myst dans lequel un "dieu" se réveille (après sans doute moult bacchanales) avec la gueule de bois et découvre que son monde est devenu sans queue ni tête. Il soliloque comme un détraqué tandis que vous passez de salle en salle à ouvrir des portes à l'issue de chaque énigme bizarroïde.

Il soliloque comme un détraqué tandis que vous passez de salle en salle à ouvrir des portes à l'issue de chaque énigme bizarroïde. Entièrement construites sur la position du regard, si ces "épreuves" semblent au début respecter une sorte de logique, elles s'avèrent bien vite diaboliquement casse-couilles.

    Graphiquement, c'est assez joli et la musique paisible se révèle un excellent somnifère. L'impression est tout de même celle d'un prototype très vague de "jeu" à peine dégrossi et meublé à la va-comme-je-te-pousse de puzzles sans but et sans mobile apparent. Tellement vide que j'ai pensé au lendemain de cuite pour expliciter cet "exercice de style" assez pédant, car j'ai horreur du vide.    … Expand

    Draws out deserved enthusiasm from you through its first half, followed by increasing frustration as the wheels start to fall off the wagon. [Sept 2015, p.94]

    A game that deserves to be ranked high among indies. True originality, that comes along an enjoyable experience, refined sense of humour and an apparently simple plot full of meaning that stares at us from the other side of the screen.

    Pneuma is an absolutely unsuitable receptacle for questions of spirit or life.
