    The Plane Effect is a stylish noir adventure about a salaryman's commute gone wrong. But it's let down by fussy puzzles and too much trial and error. You solve it the devs exact way or you're out of luck.

    Even with its frustrations, there’s something alluring about The Plane Effect. Its art style, its eerie and slightly unsettling soundtrack, its dystopian sci-fi vibe; it all leaves you with questions that you’ll be desperate to get answers for. It’s just a shame that the gameplay you’ll need to endure in an attempt to uncover those answers isn’t as enjoyable as it could be.

    The Plane Effect tries its best to be interesting but unfortunately fails to provide any entertainment value in what's ultimately a pretentious, self-centred affair. Gaming is supposed to be a form of escapism, yet this one simulates the depressing tedium of a 9-5 cubicle job a little too well.

From screenshots, it looks so promising. But there is no story and the game tells no story. The "puzzles" (find the next thing to click) are more than stupid and make no sense. Not sure what the developers want to tell us with this game. Be sure to check let's plays before wasting your money.… Full Review »

    Me encantan el escenario y esa atmósfera particular, que se saca (porfin) del tipico esquema que propone solo acción. Diria que es reflexivo…
