Takes the puzzle mechanics of the base game to a whole new level and offers an intriguing side story to boot. With Road to Gehenna, The Talos Principle may just have become the best of its genre. [Sept 2015]
For players who enjoyed The Talos Principle, Road to Gehenna is exactly what it should be – more, harder puzzles and another opportunity to dig into a deep and interesting narrative.

This DLC takes place after a specific ending to the main game, and maintains the same form as the main game. If you liked the main game a lot, Road to Ghaena is super recommended for ending the story from a different perspective, after the main game character did what he did in the "canonical" ending. Since DLC is a good size, it is not short and does not extend to the point of being boring.

Brilliant writing and puzzle design make this first expansion a success, although it's a little familiar in places. [Nov 2015, p.72]
Road to Gehenna serves as a fantastic addition to an already-great game.
It's a great DLC, one that fans of the original game really shouldn't miss.
Road to Gehenna is a nice games: the puzzles are good and the story is interesting. However, the fact that this add-on does not continue where the original game started, is a let-down.
It is hard to judge a game like The Talos Principle:Road to Gehenna , because there is nothing that it does conspicuously wrong. Its biggest sin is that its predecessor didn’t leave any room for improvement. Nor did it give Road to Gehenna a compelling reason to exist.
This DLC is worth getting if you enjoyed the main game, but found the puzzles to be a bit trivial. It has 5 worlds (to see the last, you have to get all the stars and the puzzles are significantly more difficult than any other puzzles in the game) with plenty of interesting puzzles. It's not just "more of the same" because although there are no new additions to your puzzle-solving arsenal, there is a deeper exploration of the mechanics. The story is even more text-based though, to the point where if you aren't interacting with the terminal then there really is no story at all. It's based around a community forum and is really well-implemented; though a bit too dry on the story front - everything's disconnected and there's not much interaction with other "characters".
If you want more story, look elsewhere. If you just want a DLC that really brings out the best in the game's mechanics, this is a must-have. Also has a decent soundtrack as with the main game, and a few secrets.

gameplay is really great. some puzzles took me 30 min. (i might be stupid).
the story concept is cool but the execution isn't as good as the original.
it is missing the voice tapes which was the best part for me from ttp. crucial to immersion.
overall if u like the game u should definitely get this for the challenge. it's much harder and very worth the price for content. just don't expect great story and you will enjoy what story there is.
i suspect a few things in this dlc are a teaser for the next game.
PS: to have extra fun google easter eggs XD

This is NOT Talos 2. It's the same game with extra levels. Those levels are much harder. Basically, if you were looking for a refreshed game run away. The difficulty is not progressive at all. You start like you are at the final level of the base game in terms of difficulty. Basically it's good if you wanted just that, to continue at the hardest level of the base game. Run away if you are looking for Talos 2, a progressive experience. This is just "extra hard levels".
