This unique puzzle game is remade for the PlayStation 4, with hard but fun puzzles and an Indiana Jones like character, you'll be having a lot of fun with the game. Don't expect an AAA-title, just a very fun puzzle game.
This remaster enhances the original, but also presents the same shortcomings. It's not a bad game, but it feels slightly outdated and it's not particularly long.

I bought the game on sale at the PS store for 2.29 usd.
Money vs. fun I give it a 10. If more expensive (say over 5) then I would rather not recommend it.
Graphics and acting are not AAA or good quality indy developer though they are serviceable.
The puzzles however are very fun and put you to think.
They are very diverse (the game is short -took me 5 hours, most of it trying to figure out the solutions- and not repetitive at all).
If you don't mind the dated presentation, and you are into puzzles, then I recommend this game.

This game was a very pleasant surprise. It truly gets back to the basics, GAMEPLAY. The graphics are good not great but like i said the gameplay, especially the puzzles are what had me hooked from the beginning. My son (14) also became a little addicted and we had a blast taking turns getting thru the levels. I would definitely recommend. Oh and one more thing i liked was how this game doesn't take itself too seriously. Great humor thrown in at just the right times.

Adam's Venture: Origins is fun, mainly because of its enjoyable story and engaging puzzles. However, its short length makes the price tag seem unreasonable, especially when you consider the fact that Adam's gameplay antics haven't exactly aged well.
Adam's Quest Origins is a bad adventure game and a barely good puzzle game. The environments looks good to watch but tearing everywhere and a lot of others technical problem make it not very good to play.
A pacifist game that could have been better, but as it is it's just a short and easy puzzle game.
Adam's Venture: Origins is an harmless adventure; more than a bad game, it's a very bad remake.
On a technical level, the game is simply a shambles, with amateurish animation and obtrusive texture pop-in accompanying your every step. [June 2016, p.87]
Decent puzzle game. Lots of nice puzzles that are fairly easy but do take some thought. The graphics are OK, sound etc is also OK. Funny banter and humour throughout the game which I liked. I'd recommend it to adventure/puzzle gamers

The reason I give it only 7 is just because it's too short! Yeah, the graphics are not great, rather funny sometimes, but it doesn't ruin the puzzle gameplay. Maybe Uncharted series is better, but the overall quality of puzzles and complexity of these puzzles are much better than in four Uncharted games! All in all - I enjoyed playing it very much.

Well i bought this game for a like two bucks i think. Money wise, this is a good enough game, managed to spent 4+ hours in it (and got the plat too!). Gameplay: horrendous voice acting, cliche story, clunky controls. But, the puzzle was unexpectedly fun, and adam's joke can sometimes be a bit funny, if not weird :D

Costo-Beneficio: pagué 0.20USD por él en la PSN.
JUGABILIDAD:
Si bien, del punto de vista de la exploración (porque no es precisamente una aventura) la jugabilidad es algo tosca y de precisión cuestionable, tampoco hay mucho de que quejarse considerando que el punto fuerte son los puzzles... por lo menos al inicio.
Es claro que han puesto toda la energía en los puzles, que empezaron bastante bien, pero conforme vas jugando encuentras que pierden el carisma y se ponen bastante cansinos.
Por lo menos hay una gran variedad (algunos matemáticos, otros de lógica, otros de percepción, e incluso el clásico de las tuberías).
La dificultad es poco clara: hay algunos muy sencillos y hay otros muy complicados. Confieso que para un par de ellos tuve que pedir ayuda.
Lo peor de todo es el sigilo que es pésimo. De verdad, es el peor sistema de sigilo que he jugado. Es patético.
GRÁFICOS:
Bastante simples. El diseño del protagonista me gustó y me gustaría verlo en mejor calidad.
Los escenarios son muy variados, pero la iluminación es un problema puesto que hay lugares donde avanzar resulta complicado por la falta de visibilidad.
SONIDO:
Muy descuidado y sin justificación. Yo entiendo que no todos los juegos puedan (o quieran) tener gráficos de 10, pero el sonido es diferente. Tenemos juegos indies con audio increíble, así que el presupuesto no es pretexto en este aspecto.
Hay partes en completo silencio. El silencio no me molesta, al contrario, cuando está bien implementado puede aportar mucho a la narrativa. Ahí tenemos TLOU como ejemplo.
Aquí NO está bien implementado, pareciera que por algún error hay ocasiones en que simplemente no hay sonido.
Los efectos son un tanto molestos.
Las voces son bastante planas, pero algunos de los diálogos son un tanto graciosos de lo tontos que son.

Unfortunately I can’t say much positive about the game. Puzzle solving fans will surely have some fun with Adam but that comes with lots of frustration. With terrible voice acting, bad graphics and overall weird design choices it’s very hard to recommend this game. (sorry developers)
