It looks nice, but swathes of it are entirely trial and error and screen clicking, which becomes swiftly tedious.

Short but a lot of fun.

I would love to recommend this game, but the controls are so horribly clunky that it becomes incredibly frustrating.

Yet more gimmicks (this time companions, last time antiquities) to sell an underwhelming expansion.

The combat is addictive.

The game is fun. The convoluted, indecipherable, Kafkaesque security procedures you must navigate merely to log in resulted in me uninstalling the game in frustration.

A lot of fun, although requires certain Workshop addons to make-up a few shortcomings in the base game (especially traffic management).

I have played this outside of Steam for multiple hours. This is by far the weakest expansion to ESO and represents a general drop in quality. The zone is stale and uninteresting and the writing has an underwhelming, going-through-the-motions feel to it.

Perhaps some of the lack of polish can be attributed to Covid, however, the faults in this expansion run deeper and indicate a money-grasping MVP attitude from ZOS.

I cannot recommend it.

It looks great, has moments of humour and decent voice acting.

The major problem is one that many games in this genre seem to suffer; namely that the puzzles are nonsensical. They rely upon a very particular counter-intuitive alignment of events or items that bear no relation to the real-world.

Sometimes the cat will do the impossible for you, sometimes it will refuse to do the very simple; there is no rhyme or reason to this. Sometimes there is an obvious real world solution to a problem, but the game will contrive the absurd instead. Sometimes you are required to revisit conversations just to see if another interaction has updated them, without any in-game clue that they might have. This becomes frustrating, because in the absence of logic you are forced to rely upon trial and error or relentless clicking of every shiny until you stumble upon the game's preset solution. It is problem solving in its most reductive form- throw enough ♥♥♥♥ at the wall until something sticks.

Early Access Review
Unfortunately it seems to be a perpetual loading screen simulator rather than a space simulator at this stage.
