    An excellent game that brings you into it.

    A short but immersive sci-fi story sets the background of this gorgeous-looking yet flawed adventure, that could have been an unforgettable journey.

    When you think of this game as an interactive, cinematic game, you can look past many of the shortcoming of this 3 ½ hour game. It teeters on wanting to focus only on a story while trying to maintain an interactive experience. The eerie feeling that the game creates is masterful, and its ability to make you feel like you’re experiencing the world is better than most triple-A experiences. With a possible DLC in the works to explain the abrupt ending, maybe the developers can master the balance.

    It the middle of the story the credits start rolling. It happens so suddenly that you just sit there, thinking that it’s a joke or some weird puzzle. But no, that is really it. Developers swear they’ll release a proper conclusion “soon”, but even if that happens – it’s still a shady move, especially since it’s neither an Early Access title, nor Episode 1. [Issue#234, p.60]

    The narrative premises on which it is based are not very original, but could nevertheless have represented a solid base on which to build a fully engaging experience.

    It’s hard to recommend in its current state, with very poor optimisation, but definitely one to keep an eye on in the future.

    The journey to the moon would be a mediocre experience - if it were complete.

    A very good experience. Fortuna is the first part of a long story. I hope the devs can make the next episodes in 2019/2020. The adventure ofA very good experience. Fortuna is the first part of a long story. I hope the devs can make the next episodes in 2019/2020. The adventure of this first episode is short (3/4 hours) but the ambiance is strong. Music, graphism, cinematics, I realy enjoyed almost everything in the game. The puzzles parts are not very intersting maybe (easy, repetitive...) but the story is well designed and integrated to the gameplay. Expand

Then I getFor 20$ I expected a little more than 2 hours of game-play. What I saw was immersive and fun, and the story was just getting good. Then I get kicked in the balls and credits. No where does it say on the store page that it is episodic, or relying on (free or otherwise) DLC to complete the full game. If this was listed as episodic I would have waited for all the parts to come out.

    It's a real shame though, many of the games aspects really shine through, like the spectacular music. The voice acting is a bit hit or miss most of it being really good, some of it being way too cringy, but I suspect they forgot to remove some placeholders.

    As it stands right now, it's not worth a buy, and honestly for the lack of information given on the Steam page, I'd request a refund. But the game took exactly long enough to complete to put you out of eligibility for a refund

    Poor Value for Money: This could've been a great game, but $19 for 3 hours of play of a game without an ending makes it not worth your time.Poor Value for Money: This could've been a great game, but $19 for 3 hours of play of a game without an ending makes it not worth your time. It's good, the story has depth it's fun to play, but here we're talking about value for money. Bang for your buck, and it's just not there. They've gone for an episodic game, and give you ♥♥♥♥ all game play for your money. They could've made a fantastic game if they'd finished it, but they got greedy and decided to hold back the ending.

    So if you're looking at this, and feel excited to play it, well yes it's good, but it leaves you with a sick empty feeling after all you go through and it's just cut off at the end. The story just cuts off. Don't recommend it soley because of that reason. Story is great, gameplay is great, no hand holding, but when you buy it, you are not told it's episodic.

I really wonder when walking simulatiors with minimal (read: ONE) puzzle (that's not even worth to be named such) have become the "indie game" norm for puzzle games.
    And as a fan of everything space related and a sucker for a good story.... THIS story was pretty half-baked. I found it refreshing to see a game that takes the "realism" approach - and then you start the game on a decommissioned base with noone else around, don't even disinfect your spacesuit and just go ahead and fly to the moon, alone in a jumbled together rocked just before of a sandstorm arrives, yup. This annoys me, but shouldn't be a real criticism. However, coming back to the half-baked story: just when the game begins to get somewhat interesting (read: after 3 [!] hours) it ends. You'd think you've reached the midway point, but no, that's it. And the rest of the story? In the DLC, of course.
    So we have:
    A walking simulator with no challenge to speak of
    A half baked, incomplete story
    A total playtime of 2-3, maximum 5h
    What feels like 3 voice actors maximum
    Somewhat nice graphics, especially the outside sections.

    Would not buy this game for over 3 bucks. And that is just because I like the scenario. Absolutely not recommended, and I struggle to see the comparisons to firewatch, SOMA etc. - all of these are actual games with a well-written story and plot.
