Push Square: 7 / 10 by Liam Croft
The Invincible has a wondrous story to tell and dazzling graphics to match, but it's held back from greatness by gameplay that struggles to ever break away from the genre structure of old. Mostly walking and talking, it never feels anything more than serviceable. Still, there's an interesting narrative to experience, and with your own decisions changing events, The Invincible should still be played by sci-fi fanatics.
Windows Central: 4.5 / 5 by Cole Martin
The landscape of Regis III is as stunning as it is haunting, and Yasna's journey in this unusual land is rife with philosophical and moral conundrums that leave you with plenty to think about even after the credits roll.
PlayStation Universe: 7.5 / 10 by Garri Bagdasarov
I enjoyed exploring Regis III and uncovering the various mysteries that it holds. However, while the gameplay is simple and basic, The Invincible excels in its fantastic writing and performances from main characters, Yasna and Novick. As I played through the game, I was driven deeper and deeper into its narrative until the big reveals were finally unleashed.
The main pros of the game

- Unique Experience: Described as more of an interactive narrative or visual novel, it appeals to those who appreciate story-driven experiences over traditional gameplay mechanics.

- Technical Issues: Several users report bugs, such as graphical glitches, soft-locks, and performance problems, which detract from the overall experience.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

The Invincible Description
The Invincible is a first-person retrofuturistic thriller and a loose adaptation of The Invincible, a novel by Stanislaw Lem. It's the debut project of Starward Industries, whose ranks include developers who have previously worked on such games as Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher 3 and Dying Light.
Plot
The Invincible is set in an alternate world which never entered the digital age. All the highly advanced gear that appears in the game is based on analog technology.
We play as Yasna - a member of an interstellar research expedition. She starts the game alone, waking up on an alien planet, Regis III. She doesn't remember how she ended up here, but she knows for sure she didn't come alone. The remaining crew members have disappeared, however, forcing her to go find them.
As she learns what happened to her crewmates, Yasna soon realizes Regis III is extremely dangerous. Members of an enemy human empire are present on the planet, and even the globe itself seems hostile to all outsiders.
Mechanics
The Invincible mostly focuses on exploration, storytelling and puzzles. As we progress through the game, we can talk to Astrogator Novik, our commander, who advises us over the radio. We can also use a probe and a set of tools to overcome obstacles.
The game makes use of the first-person perspective. The story is non-linear and changes depending on our decisions. As the story unfolds, we also learn what exactly led the researchers to Regis III.
Technical aspects
The Invincible runs on the Unreal Engine, its retro-futuristic artstyle inspired by sci-fi novels and movies created early during the Cold War.
