I consider this the definitive execution in any form of Giger's and to a lesser extent Beksiński's works, and I'm a disappointed they weren't credited, perhaps for legal reasons. The developers clearly took several core artworks and ran with them, trying to imagine how a linear narrative around these would look like. In that exercise, the game is a resounding success. It is otherwordly, it is bleak, it is gory, organic, sexual, biomechanical, grotesque, hostile, decaying and beautiful. And narratively obtuse in the best way.

Be wary of a couple of puzzles that may be frustrating if you're not expecting them, and don't expect any originality in the way you interact with the game: mechanically, it is standard exploration puzzle fare.
