    This game is absolute garbage! The first one was pretty great, but the controls are junk on this one and the characters are all complete morons. Do not buy!

    Huge downgrade compared to 'Deliver us the Moon'. Bad textures, bad or inexistent lips sync, frame drops. And the holograms...a joke...

    This is a very bad game. No fun factor whatsoever. Don't trust the reviews.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved the first game, Deliver Us the Moon. I actually really enjoyed the game play of the second game at the beginning. Was even going to try to platinum the game. Made it to chapter 4 and the first big climbing section and that killed the game. After spending an hour trying to climb down with the unresponsive controls, I have given up on platinum... and still could not manage to get my character down the cliff. Holding L2 and R2 on controller makes you stab both picks into the wall to cling to it. Well, if you drop and try to hang back on, there's a huge chance the game doesn't even register you hitting L2 and R2 and doesn't even make a stabbing animation. You just die, repeatedly. I understand you need room to slide, to dig your picks in to catch yourself. But it doesn't work consistently. And you have to do this a lot. And apparently it gets worse later on. Thanks a lot for ruining what was a fun game, pick axes. Up to this point the story and dialogue and voice acting were great. I just wanted to finish the story. If you can't beat it, just delete it. :D… Expand

    Poor and disappointing after Deliver Us the Moon which was great. Really bad frame rate and lag on PS5 is inexcusable. Poor facial modelling (poor even for PS4 frankly) and voice sync also let it down even though the voice acting itself is decent, though not great. There is also a lack of basic attention to detail - I know it's not AAA, but at least make the effort to have a lunar modulePoor and disappointing after Deliver Us the Moon which was great.

There is also a lack of basic attention to detail - I know it's not AAA, but at least make the effort to have a lunar module leave surface tracks in a cinematic (that's just one of many examples of lazy execution). The character building is also clumsily handled and ultimately meant I didn't much like anyone. I also found the hologram and splitter puzzles just plain annoying. In the end after really looking forward to this game after "moon' I quit about 1/4 of the way in. Big disappointment.… Expand

    A sequel that’s put in the work to expand its predecessor’s horizons is commendable, but for Deliver Us Mars this doesn’t always work out perfectly. Still, it offers another thrilling adventure for deep-space explorers, with welcome character moments that make it a little less solitary this time around.

    Mars itself doesn’t feature as much as it probably should, but this is made up for by engaging characters, purposeful traversal, and a heartfelt message. [Issue#25, p.77]

    Deliver Us Mars is a strongly story-driven adventure, which places great emphasis on the touching narrative sector, capable of making the player think continuously, and on the exploration of a planet full of mysteries: climbing the rocky walls of Mars works but it is the variety in terms of environmental puzzles to be lacking. The visual presentation is solid and, net of some imperfections and some drop in frame rate, embellishes this journey certainly suitable for lovers of the reference genre.
