I write this review to give anyone thinking of buying this game a fair warning:

Even though I loved the game for an adventure game it was I cannot recommend it as it is, for it kept crashing or getting glitches where all sound was lost until resetting. Even after long time searching for fixes and reading through bugs and glitches other people had encountered, I could not find any workarounds; or rather, many workarounds each being all different and the developer helping these people (atleast the person posting in steam community discussions) was almost as clueless as the players suffering from these were.

If this game had no game-breaking crashes or glitches that removed all sounds, it would be extremely enjoyable point-and-click adventure game that only suffers from typical point-and-click troubles them being "use object X to thing Y" to progress or "now after irrelevant event X go to location Y to pick up object Z to use on a thing in new location" to progress.

In the end, since there is a great chance anyone who is thinking of trying this game now on a modern PC is going to encounter same problems as I have I cannot recommend this game with good conscience, as I don't want anyone suffering the same as I did: getting a crashes trying to load a save, constantly restarting the game trying to change settings to stop the sounds from getting glitched (which btw I never did manage to fix and suffered them all the way to one of the endings which it ruined for me), getting crashes from playing certain sound-files or getting crashes during cutscenes where game was trying to load a line.

Aside from all this, Primordia is an excellent point-and-click adventure game and I really hate the fact I could only enjoy it to about a halfway until all technical problems emerged. Only buy this game if you acknowledge the danger of crashes and glitches because it can happen to you too and you may have to stop playing midway or spend lots of time troubleshooting, killing your experience.

(PS: In case it matters to you, I did not buy this game, I got it for a Christmas present from a friend.)
