Table of Contents

Outer Wilds has become one of the biggest video game sensations of 2019 for a reason. The debut production of Mobius Digital studio is more than an exploration game – although the main task of the player is a journey through a planetary system full of secrets and anomalies, an important element of the game is also solving the mystery of the time loop, which includes all the celestial bodies we learn.
There are also surprises for the player – the surroundings are changing irregularly, so often returning to the same place means discovering new interesting clues, and even creating different landscapes. The adventure is even more pleasant thanks to remarkably atmospheric soundtrack by Andrew Prahlow.
Some of the players only complain about the controls. In fact, it may seem counterintuitive and somewhat clunky at first. However, you can get used to it and then completely ignore the mechanical inconveniences, and focus entirely on enjoying space exploration.
