“Good puzzle game, 6-8 hours long, but it misses that special touch to make it reach Portal level. The game never derails of its story, you pretty much see it coming from start to finish (if anything, it's even more of a…”

“Fantastic Premise Let Down in Several Areas I'm a big fan of realistic sci-fi. I in particular love the theories about Europa. I was a massive fan of the Europa Report movie. So the premise of this game is absolutely…”

— a player, Steam review · 12 hrs played“The Turing Test is a fun puzzle game. It is basically Portal without the portals and humor. I enjoyed solving the puzzles and I liked the space theme. If you like puzzle games, you should try this game.”
