The Turing Test

The Turing Test

I loved The Talos Principle so finally got around to playing this one.

What Is It?

The Turing Test is a 1st person puzzle game. It has a lot in common with Portal and The Talos Principle. There are some items and some physics and lots of puzzle solving. Meanwhile, there is an overall story being told with the help of a mysterious computer-like mentor/tormentor. 

My Reaction

Lots of fun. The puzzles were good and the story especially appealed to me. I don't want to give many spoilers but it was quite philosophical and dealt with the nature of humanity.

Should You Get It?

Maybe. I never played the first Portal, but Portal 2 was very good and a bigger part of gaming culture. Get that instead. I also really liked Talos Principle. So if you've enjoyed those games, The Turing Test is a safe bet. 

One advantage of Turing Test is that it is shorter than the others. I did my playthrough in less than 15 hours, compared to 25 for Portal 2 and 30 for Talos Principle.
