Scorn is Myst wrapped in a HR Geiger cover.

I wasn't hoping for a FPS but I also wasn't expecting absolutely no direction whatsoever. The first puzzle basically did my head in and was unable to solve it. The. First. Puzzle. It's so obtuse. This is one of my biggest disappointments in a really long time. I absolutely love the art direction and the atmosphere but I have a life that ticks away every second and I don't have time to wander around solving completely obtuse and confusing puzzles. This game relies on the confusion of the player to drag out it's playtime, not actually engaging game play. If I was a kid, I might cry over my disappointment.

Furthermore, there is seemingly no audio to add to the enjoyment. No sounds from your walking, no sounds when "machines" move around...it's very odd and screams of being unfinished and plopped out. I know it was from Kickstarter and had some issues during development, but regardless, it feels unfinished.
